Minimum Curing Time
Certain requirements must be maintained when replacing a bonded window. For example, always allow the adhesive to harden for the minimum curing time.
The minimum curing time for 2K adhesive is 2 hours for all windows.
Curing time means the time from when the window is bonded to when the vehicle is put back into use. During this time, the vehicle must stand on an even surface at room temperature (at least 15 °C) (59 °F).
The vehicle is operationally ready only after the minimum curing time has elapsed.
