WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2013 BMW 550i GT, 2012 BMW 550i GT, 2011 BMW 550i GT, and 2010 BMW 550i GT. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Opened glue cartridges may be used again before the expiry date as long as a new mixing tube is used.
The working temperature of glue cartridge must be at least 20°C.
Insert glue cartridge into cartridge gun, remove cap and allow both adhesive components to emerge. Strip adhesive components uniformly and attach mixing tube. Only use mixing tubes supplied with glue cartridge.
Allow approx. 10 cm of mixed adhesive to emerge and then apply the mixed adhesive first on one side of the bonding surface.
Potlife of mixed adhesive approx. 2 hours. A change of mixer is only necessary if over a period of 1 hour no material has flowed through the mixer.
