How do I go about sealing the front windshield of my 92 Max Se? Thanks

 

3M makes a great windshield sealer in a tube. That's for installing, but not sure on the part number. Are you replacing it, or repairing a leak, or what?

 

Thanks for the reply I'm repairing a leak on it, it leaks right in the middle and comes through the car so I want to fix that where do I go to get that sealer?

 

First, make sure the seals/moldings are in decent shape. Without those you'll run into more leaks. As far as the sealant is concerned, I've always got it from a local Napa. Any decent wholesale parts house should stock it.

Edit: I think it's 3M 8551. Should be under 10 bucks. You may also find it at an auto body supply store.

 

take 1/4" thick rope or wire. open window seals wide open all around and push that in to keep it open. clean and scrape all rust/dirt off. paint with good rust protect paint, 3x. after well dried, take stuffing out, use the 3M sealAnt liberally as u squeese it between. from now on watch as a hawk always 24/7 when where the 3M will give out, repair. (Some filler stuff is so good that no paint needed...)

for those windows as its not leaking yet but rust seeping out, and/or lazy owner: squirt a lidl oil for any rust spot to stop it from spreading, under the seal. (This is best way in a car like micra; rear window wiper in the frame is so thin that it always will crack paint as it bends, rust will start anew.)

Wipe away any visible leftover stuff...

 

thanks for the reply i'll get to work on it asap cause the leaking is problem , thanks again

 

the 3M sealant you guys use is urethane right? when i worked on windshields in a previose job i had, i used a black lookin sealant known only to me as "urethane". never looked at what company makes it
