[VAC] Re: Spec. for orig. window glass, 1962



The original glass is plain 1/8" window glass. In overhauling all the Hehr C1200 windows in the Caravel, I removed the panes, cleaned up the window frames, laid down some black 3/8" wide x 1/8" window mastic tape (from a glass shop in 50' rolls), laid in the glass pane, and then the new Hehr retainer material, siliconed in each corner at the miter.

I took pictures of the process, and will be one of the restoration topics (http://www.vintageairstream.com/rr_home.html) once I get caught up with the VAC website.
