Adhesive quantities:

Approx. 1 1/4 adhesive cartridges are needed to cement 7 Series windscreens.

In the case of hot cementing (with accelerator), the missing residual bead is applied from a second adhesive cartridge (not contained in the repair kit) but while cold and without accelerator (bubbling).

Minimum hardening period is thus not increased.

IMPORTANT: If a second cartridge is required for cementing:
  • First apply cold adhesive to cowl panel at bottom (skin formation time)
  • Accelerator from repair kit must not be used with the second cartridge (bubbling)

    Bubbling results in leakage and insufficient bonding strength (torsional rigidity, passenger airbag).
