PART 3 EXECUTION

3.1 EXAMINATION

A. Film examination.

1. Assure film has been installed to manufacturers specifications and is free of defects and debris.

2. Assure film extends sufficiently to edges of frame.

B. Glass examination.

1. For installations securing impact or laminated glass to frames, assure glass is free of defects or edge cracks and is properly sized for the opening.

C. Frame examination.

1. Assure frame is clean and free of debris and is prepared according to silicone manufacturers specifications.

D. Structural silicone examination.

1. Assure silicone is within the recommended "use by" dates. If the silicone is out of date, DO NOT USE. Contact the appropriate personnel and continue when replacement silicone has been acquired.

E. BondKap examination.

1. Assure the BondKap is the correct length, color and profile for the installation.

2. Assure the BondKap has not been subject to direct sunlight and has warped. If damage has occurred replace as necessary. BondKap will not warp once properly installed and has full adhesion with the structural silicone.

3.2 PREPARATION

A. Clean surfaces thoroughly prior to installation. Use primers as necessary following silicone manufactures specifications.

B. Pre-cut the BondKap strips as directed from the manufacturer.

3.3 INSTALLATION

A. Film Installation:

1. Install in accordance with manufacturer's instructions.

B. Silicone and BondKap installation:

1. Install as specified by silicone manufacturer and BondKap manufacturer.

2. Cut the tip of the silicone the appropriate size for the BondKap in use.

3. Apply the silicone to the frame and glass or on the BondKap depending on which profile is in use.

4. Place the BondKap on the silicone at the specified angle to achieve maximum contact with silicone frame and glass.

a. If alternative BondKap selection is used and silicone has been applied to the BondKap, press the silicone BondKap combination to the desired position on the glass and frame.

08873-6

5. Apply sufficient pressure to assure silicone is mated to BondKap, glass and frame. You should be able to perceive the silicone under the BondKap. If not lift the BondKap and apply more silicone. If an excess of silicone is protruding past the BondKap see 3.4 cleaning and protection.

3.4 CLEANING AND PROTECTION

A. Remove exposed silicone with plastic razor blades. denatured alcohol or other cleaner recommended by silicone manufacturer may also be used. Be aware not to damage the window film.

B. Protect installed product until completion of project.

C. Where installed film could be damaged by subsequent construction provide tape warning strips or barricades to prevent contact.
