      Hi Rowland
      I had the same advice from Nev.
      I took off all the Gel Coat from the rebates, not only to give a good bond but
      the windscreens are slightly thicker than the rebates and taking the Gel Coat
      off also minimises the amount of filler needed to get a good transition from the
      plexiglass to door and fuselage mouldings.
      I also removed the Gel Coat from the side of the rebate so the Araldite gets a
      good bond around the edge of the screens as well. I filled the edge gap with the
      araldite rather than filler.
      Worked ok for me although I still have the filler task to do to get a smooth profile.
      Good time to put the windscreens in - no problems with the 420 curing in this heat!
