There are all kinds of cases – the stone on the road flew off, the pit – and now the windshield is covered with cracks. Replacing it, of course, is easiest in the cabin, but it is much cheaper to do it yourself in the garage. What will help us in this matter?
The windshield itself, a faceted string or a sharp knife to extract the old glass, a construction knife for removing the sealant, and some other little things.
First remove the old glass with a string or knife. Just do not damage the plastic. He is also soft, like mobile stands, and therefore easily breaks. With a construction knife, remove the old sealant and degrease the groove. Glass must be prepared for installation – put it on a hard and high surface. The surface of the glass, which will be contacted with the groove or with the body, must be carefully treated with a primer to ensure better adhesion of materials.
Now you need to apply a sealant, and the line should be inseparable. Well, glass can be installed. If the sealant got out on the glass, then this is not scary – later remove. Now fix with tape and leave until the morning.
