Combat window repair

http://986forum.com/forums/uploads01...1415035318.jpg Ok, I know taping a window is nothing new, but when I was in Colorado, the wife was putting down the window and "CRACK!" happened, this is how I got quick even results. The top is being replaced in the spring, so no big deal. I cleaned the window inside and out with rubbing alcohol, then softened the window with a heat gun on low (I'm sure a blow dryer will do the trick) to flatten it out and prevent further cracking during the repair. I used Gorilla Tape Clear, it is easy to find at Home Depot or Lowes. I had the wife hold a hardcover book on the inside against the window to give me a surface to work on, this allowed me No wrinkles or bubbles and allowed me to really work it against the book. I then repeated the process on the inside (taped inside and out). Gorilla Tape Clear is claiming it is waterproof, and UV resistant. Seams like a better option that packing tape. Hope this helps someone. |
Good save.I have a one inch crack at the 12 o'clock spot on mine and last years tiny packing tape patch is worn out.
I'll try your attack to use till next springs new top episode. Thanks |
