51 00... Notes on fitting window guide seals

  1. Safety at work 
    • Wear protective goggles, protective gloves and if necessary an apron.
    • Do not eat, drink or smoke in the area of processing/application
    • Ensure rooms are well ventilated.
    • Keep heat and ignition sources well away
    • In event of skin contact: Wash areas of skin affected with soap and water immediately, change work clothing which has been fouled with anti-friction agent immediately (keep spare work clothing in reserve)
    • In event of eye contact: Rinse eyes immediately with plenty of water and seek medical advice
    • Observe safety data sheet (see Aftersales Assistance Portal (ASAP) - Service/Technology - Safety Data Sheet - 7-digit part number)
  2. General notes 
    • Use only BMW-approved anti-friction agents for fitting
    • Application only at room and object temperatures between 18 and 25 °C
    • Anti-friction agent dries after fitting and becomes sticky
    • Anti-friction agent can only be used for fitting and not for fault elimination (e.g. grating)
    • Freshly painted parts may only be glued after a minimum drying time of 24 hours
    • Optimal attachment of the film to the background surface is achieved after approx. 48 hours. Film must not be exposed to mechanical strain beforehand (car wash, strength test, etc.).
    IMPORTANT: To avoid grating noises, do not use soapy water (low-surface-tension water with washing-up liquid) or anti-friction agent containing silicone
  3. Auxiliary materials and tools 
    • Spirit, cleaning cloth, plastic squeegee, needle
    • Anti-friction agent G13 (manufactured by Zestron) part no. 83 23 0441 032
  4. Preparations 
    • Heat and remove adhesive residues with a hot air blower or clean new part thoroughly
    • Immediately prior to fitting, clean the areas to be glued with spirit in order to remove silicone and grease residues
    NOTE: Air drying time approx. 1 minute
  5. Installation 
    • Apply anti-friction agent to reverse side of seal only
    • Perform fitting within 10 minutes of applying anti-friction agent
    • Anti-friction agent dries after fitting and becomes sticky
