WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2010 BMW 550i, 2009 BMW 550i, and 2008 BMW 550i. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Do not prepare the glue cartridge until just before applying the adhesive.
The working temperature of glue cartridge must be at least 18°C.
Pot life of adhesive is approx. 10 minutes at 25 °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.
Before starting to apply adhesive, allow approx. 1 mixing tube length of mixed adhesive to emerge. Only then apply the mixed adhesive to one side of the bonding surface.
Opened cartridges may be used again before the expiry date as long as a new mixing tube is used.
