3.5 Treatment of ceramic glass surface (inside of window)

• Clean with cleaning agent R2
• Observe an air drying time of at least 5 minutes

Only for new  window glass:

• Apply a thin coat of glass activator (yellow stick); a final wipe is not necessary.
• Observe an air drying time of at least 2 minutes

The bonding agent is used for adhesion between glass or ceramic glass and the adhesive. Therefore, a thin, homogeneous and continuous line of bonding agent must be applied. If the window glass is to be reused with a cut-back adhesive bead, bonding agent is not needed.

It must be ensured that a 1 to 2 mm wide line of bonding agent is located on the ceramic glass next to the squeezed adhesive bead.

The adhesive bead may become up to 15 mm wide in compressed condition. The width of the adhesion agent is therefore at least 17 mm with windscreens and rear windows and at least 9 mm with side window.

The bonding agent may not be applied in the field of view or the point grid. Fresh bonding agent in the field of view must immediately be wiped off with cleaning agent R2 because hardened bonding agent will leave a haze behind.
