3.1 Mixing Glue

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2013 BMW X5 M, 2012 BMW X5 M, 2011 BMW X5 M, and 2010 BMW X5 M. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Cut off sealing tips on containers of glue and hardener using a knife.

Make sure that both openings are equal in size, as otherwise there would be mistakes in mixing.

The sealing cap for subsequent plugging of the double injector is located between both pistons of the injector. Break off sealing cap.

The required amount of glue and hardener is removed by applying light pressure on the pistons.

The mixture ratio of adhesive and hardener is 1 : 1 (weight and volume). It is important that the same volumes of glue and hardener are removed (increase size of openings if necessary).

Both components react chemically with each other. Thorough, intensive and homogenous mixing is a requirement for this reaction and for the quality of gluing.

Consequently both components must be mixed in such a way that there is a uniform, ream-free color mixture.
