    NOTE:
    • The surface coating of adhesive residue helps new adhesive to stick. Keep cut surfaces clean and free of grease and do not clean with cleaning solution.
  2. Cleaning and priming paint damage or newly built-up paint areas in the window aperture of the body

    Clean new paint areas or damage to the top coat paint in the non-visible area of the glass section in the body with cleaning solution -H1-  and patch with primer -H2-  .
