[VAC] Re: 1966 Window breakage prevention



Ed. You have the answer. MIGHT is the word. Straight tempered glass that is
bent by using a the molding, will be under continuous stress. Not good. The
Acrylite AR-2 that we use, will also be put under a stress, BUT, when it is
exposed to the sun, that stress completely relaxes. Evidence of that is
installing the same window without any moldings, on the side of the trailer.
After a couple of months, it has accepted the contour of the trailer. 
When you open that window, the contour remains.
