Another popular window adhesive is Sika 295 UV which must be used with the Sika Primer for the best results.

Many automobiles today have their windows installed with a Sika adhesive which I assume will last for 20-30 years. And auto windshields are considered part of the structural integrity of the vehicle.

My car windshield was replaced last year......the glass shop used a Sika adhesive.....the guy said it was similar to Sika 295 UV except the curing time was much less.....as one can imagine, these auto repair shops can't have the vehicles hanging around for 24 to 48 hours for the adhesive to cure.

If Plexis has lasted 20-30 years, why take a risk on something with less of a track record? Seems as if Plexis has Proven itself to last plenty long.

How are the windows attached in the new generation of C&c's? While Plexus may have been the adhesive of choice 30+ years ago
    when my boat was built, I suspect adhesive technologies have
    advanced since then and that others may do a better job.

    Eric,

    This subject has come up in the past many, many times. I suggest
    a trip to the archives before we return to this discussion.  My
    preferred method is Plexus.  I've done the job twice and it works
    as advertised.  Others have had success with other products, but
    C&C used Plexus.

    group

    Hello,

    I think my winter project this year will be to replace the
    windows on the boat. They are pretty badly pitted and have
    vertical splits in the windows.

    Any advise on taking on this task.

    It looks like South Shore Yachts will create these based on a
    paper template.

    I am wondering how to get the old windows off without destroying
    the deck and how to glue the new ones in.
