  Q: How to reseal a windshield on Lincoln Aviator?

  A: The first step for windshield resealing requires you to remove A-pillar trim panels, sun visors, retainers, overhead console and subsequent roof opening panel trim and interior rear view mirror when necessary. Open up the top panel of the roof opening and also remove the interior mirror component when necessary. Lower the front section of the headliner partly near the windshield but secure it with proper support materials. The existing urethane edge and glass connection requires cleaning using alcohol-free cleaner both inside at the top and sides as well as outside at the bottom of the windshield. A precise cut on the urethane applicator tip along with a high-ratio electric or battery-operated caulk gun enable users to reduce effort while applying continuous urethane adhesive beads. The urethane adhesive needs to be smoothed into continuous bead formation before backfilling the application while cleaning remaining urethane residue. Check the urethane adhesive's dryness during the one-hour minimum waiting period before conducting air and water leak tests. The procedure requires additional urethane if needed. Follow the cure period by installing the cowl panel grille followed by reinstalling the interior rear view mirror and the roof opening panel trim (if equipped) together with A-pillar trim panels and sun visors and retainers and the overhead console. To complete the process you should clean interior and exterior windshield glass with aiper that contains no alcohol.
