  1. The part and surface should be 21°C (70°F) prior to installation. The vehicle should remain 21°C (70°F) for one hour after assembly to allow adhesive to develop sufficient bond strength.

  3. When removing protective liners from the adhesive backed weatherstrip, be careful not to touch the tape with hands. Do not allow the tape to come in contact with dirt or any foreign matter prior to adhesion.
