What happens here
Using a sharp scraping tool, carefully remove any remaining old urethane adhesive from the vehicle's metal windshield frame. Ensure the surface is as clean and smooth as possible. Then, apply a coat of Betaprime (a specialized primer) to the cleaned metal frame using the included dauber. This primer is crucial for improving the adhesion of the new urethane and providing rust protection to the metal.
Goal: Prepare the vehicle frame for new adhesive and glass.
