Preliminary Procedures

  1. Use a J 25070 Heat Gun, or equivalent to remove the old hood molding. Clean all adhesive from the hood side molding, then wipe the surface dry with a clean lint-free towel, prior to installing the new hood molding.
  2. When removing the protective liners from the adhesive tape, be careful not to touch the tape with your hands and do not allow the tape to come in contact with dirt or any foreign matter prior to adhesion.
  3. Never allow the body temperature to be below 19°C (66°F) prior to installation.
  4. Ensure the hood is free from dirt and foreign matter prior to the molding installation.
