1
Make sure the windshield is clean as given in
.
2
Apply masking tape to the edges of the windshield, the weather seal and 0.25 in (6.0
mm) of the glass.
3
Make sure that the masking tape gives a water tight seal.
4
Use paper wipes and clean the windshield surface with isopropanol.
5
Put deionized water in a bottle.
6
Put on a new pair of disposable gloves and use paper wipes to apply a layer of polishing
slurry to the windshield.
7
Use paper wipes and polish the glass surface of the windshield with short, circular
movements evenly and maximum of two times.
8
If the surface becomes dry during polishing, apply more polishing slurry or spray with
deionized water.
9
Continue to polish the glass surface of the windshield until a thin layer of polishing slurry
can be seen on all of the glass surface.
10
Spray deionized water to rinse the windshield glass surface, start at the top and go down.
11
Use clean paper wipes to fully dry the windshield glass surface.
12
Do step 10 and step 11 again as necessary until all of the polishing slurry has been
removed.
13
Discard the used paper wipes, and the disposable gloves.
14
Apply the surface activation solution as follows:
14.1
Use a new pair of disposable gloves.
14.2
Prepare a 500 ml bottle of hot deionized water at a temperature between 131
and 149 °F (55 and 65 °C).
14.3
Add approximately 0.84 fl. oz (25 ml) of surface activation concentrate to the
hot deionized water. A correctly filled 500 ml bottle will give a concentration of
approximately 5%.
14.4
Close and shake the 500 ml bottle.
14.5
Record the concentration of the surface activation solution on the label of the
500 ml bottle.
14.6
Attach a nozzle to the 500 ml bottle and start to spray the solution from the top.
Spray sufficient solution on the windshield so that it flows continuously over the
windshield glass surface.
14.7
Do step 14.6 a minimum of three times.
14.8
Use deionized water to remove all the remaining surface activation solution
from the windshield glass surface.
