2006 Isuzu Ascender S, 4.2 S, 4WDSECTION Urethane Adhesive Installation of Bodyside Stationary Windows (w/Frame)
IMPORTANT: Remove all but 2 mm (3/64 in) of the existing urethane adhesive from the pinch-weld flange.
  1. Remove all mounds or loose pieces of urethane adhesive from pinch-weld flange areas.
  2. IMPORTANT: If corrosion of the pinch-weld flange is present or if sheet metal repairs or replacement are required, the pinch-weld flange must be refinished in order to restore the bonding area strength. If paint repairs are required, mask the flange bonding area prior to applying the color coat in order to provide a clean primer only surface. Materials such as BASF DE15, Dupont 2610, Sherwin-Williams PSE 4600 and NP70, Martin-Semour 5120 and 5130, PPG DP90LF, Spies/Hecker 3688/8590 3688/5150 4070/5090, and Standox 11158/13320 14653/14980 are products approved for this application.
  3. Clean around the inside surface of the bodyside opening and window frame with a 50/50 mixture of isopropyl alcohol and water by volume on a dampened lint free cloth.
  4. CAUTION: When replacing stationary windows, use Urethane Adhesive Kit GM P/N 12346392 (Canadian P/N 10952983), or a urethane adhesive system meeting GM Specification GM3651G, to maintain original installation integrity. Failure to use the urethane adhesive kit will result in poor retention of the window which may allow unrestrained occupants to be ejected from the vehicle resulting in personal injury.
  5. Verify all primers and urethane adhesives are within expiration dates.
  6. CAUTION: Failure to prep the area prior to the application of primer may cause insufficient bonding of urethane adhesive. Insufficient bonding of urethane adhesive may allow unrestrained occupants to be ejected from the vehicle resulting in personal injury.
