Divorced t top frame
« on: January 07, 2015, 06:34:35 PM »
Hiya all, I was replacing the weather seals on the t tops today and noticed the adhesive that joins the aluminium frame to the glass had given way. On closer inspection I noticed one of the securing nuts was missing allowing movement. Still on holidays decided to do the job properly, so separated the frame and glass and cleaned up both. Tomorrow I will paint the frame before assembly. What is the best adhesive to join the two together again. Chris  :eek:
