    A thin, violet-coloured coating of primer is sufficient for the adhesive flanges.

    Adhesive flanges are not evenly coated (droplet formation):

    result is not OK.

    Using wet sandpaper (approx. 200 grit) or a sanding fleece, rub the primer film, which is still damp, around the flange area until an even application of primer is achieved. If an even application of primer is not obtained, the adhesive flange must be completely cleaned, sanded and primed once again.
