Cold Weather Applications

Whenever possible, it is recommended to apply windshields during cold weather in a controlled environment [in a shop].

  1. Remove snow, ice, dirt, etc. from all areas.
  2. Check glass for condensation and remove it.
  3. Check pinchweld for condensation and remove it prior to pinchweld preparation.
  4. Warm the primed areas with a heat gun, prior to primer application, to ensure 'flash off' at low temperatures.
NOTE: Check for the temperature and humidity application capabilities of each urethane in cold temperatures. Use only the products recommended, and closely follow any cold weather procedures prescribed by the manufacturer.
