Maude The AcuTrailer Update : Look Familiar?

Howdy! More window this week! Surprise! LOL
​Last weekend we did the top window. This weekend we did the bottom.

Some previous fool decided to use the types of materials one would use to glaze windows in a house. It was a COMPLETE PAIN to deal with in a trailer situation! As you can see above, we had to chip off the material that was like a plastery-concrete material to uncover the edge of the window pane.
Picture
Then we used the heat gun to release the window pane from the tacky material that helps hold it in place. We managed to keep the original window pane in tact! WOOHOO! If you recall, we broke the last one we tried to remove from the frame ;)  A little acetone and a razor blade got it all cleaned up and looking beautiful!

While I was cleaning the window pane, Mike was chiseling out more of the plastery-concrete stuff. Once he got it all chiseled-out, he used a wire wheel to clean up the frame. Check out how NASTY it was! You can totally see the difference in the picture on the above right!
Picture
And just like all the other windows, the pane got placed with new tacky stuff and then the rubber sealing-strips that you see in the above photo! Doing these windows is tedious and really frustrating in the heat (the tacky stuff gets SUUUPER tacky and prefers to stick to fingers over the aluminum frame!), but MAN, they look really pretty all cleaned up! PLUS With the new seals they actually seal now! We're hoping that these windows were the main source of our remaining leaks!

3 more windows remain! 

Until next time :)  <3 Becca
