Vehicle Damage Warnings
CAUTION:^ Care must be used to avoid scratching the removable top.
^ After installing the new urethane-installed glass, the vehicle should not be driven until the urethane adhesive has cured. The curing time at temperatures above 13°C (55°F) and relative humidity above 50% is 12-24 hours. (Refer to the Essex driveaway chart for the cure times as the temperatures and humidity vary.) Inadequate curing of the urethane adhesive may adversely affect the strength of the urethane adhesive bond.
^ Care must be taken to avoid scratching the adhesive area.
^ Wipe off the urethane glass prep immediately after each application because it flash dries. Apply with deliberate strokes, making sure not to overlap the applied area.
^ If the vehicle is to be driven within 24 hours of urethane adhesive application, Urethane Adhesive Essex U-216 meeting Ford specification WSB-M2G316-B must be used due to its one-hour cure time.
