Prior the adhesive application the surface has to be pre-treated according to Sika’s surface preparation recommendations.

METHOD OF APPLICATION
To remove the contamination from windshields, use Sika® CleanGlass respectively Sika® Cleaner G+P or an equivalent non antistatic glass cleaner to wet the surface and detect contamination.
