A windscreen is a very important component with respect to the overall structure of the car body. It improves structural stiffness and provides protection of the passengers. The windscreen adhesive used in the replacement is the only means of holding the windscreen to the car body.
In our repair shown we will be using TEROSON BOND 60 with a safe drive-away time according to FMVSS 212/208 and Henkel New Crash Standard of only 60 minutes. But any other suitable windscreen adhesive can be used. Please carefully consider safe drive-away time and if pre-heating is needed!
All repair and maintenance tasks shown should be done by professionals only. Please do not try this at home or if not qualified by professional education. Always follow the car manufacturer's instructions.
Limitation of liability
Unpack the new windscreen. To remove dirt and grime, clean it from both sides using a professional cleaner such as TEROSON BOND Glass Cleaner.
Check the new windscreen for damages or scratches and make sure it fits.
Apply the TEROSON® BOND Glass Cleaner again and dry off the bondline in one direction using a lint-free cloth.
Remove the attachments from the car and cut out the windscreen. Using the TEROSON BOND Easy Cut makes it especially easy.
Remove all dirt from the frame using TEROSON BOND Glass Cleaner and a lint-free cloth. Then evenly trim back the remaining bead. Cover paint damages with primer if needed.
Before opening the bottle, shake primer bottle well (at least 1 minute). Apply primer with wool dauber in one pass on the bondline (allow to flash off for 2 minutes).
Determine bead height in roof area. Where the roof is the same height as the pane, adjust the applicator nozzle to the correct height: final bead height = flange height (x) plus 2 mm.
Remove its bottom lid and pierce the top membrane to open the cartridge beforehand. Insert into application gun.
For best results, move the nozzle at a right angle to the horizontally positioned screen. It is recommended that the cartridge content is extruded evenly in one pass.
Carefully insert the new windscreen into the body frame. Use TEROSON VR 5080 fix & repair tape to secure the correct positioning temporarily. Install attachments.
Be sure to observe the Safe Drive-Away Time. For TEROSON® BOND 60 it is 60 minutes. After this time it is ensured that the vehicle meets the FMVSS requirements.
Make sure that all driving assistance systems are calibrated. Follow the car manufacturer’s instructions for re-calibration of the safety systems.
TEROSON® BOND 60 windscreen adhesive is designed to meet not only the requirements FMVSS crash standards (212/208), but also the much stricter Henkel requirements. This means that safe windscreen adhesion is guaranteed even in a 40% overlap collision at a speed of 64 km/h.
