4. Re-install the weatherstrip immediately after cement application as follows:

a. Press in the weatherstrip upper ridge into the upper channel.

b. While maintaining upward tension to keep it in the upper channel, press the weatherstrip's lower ridge into its channel.

^ If necessary, use a plastic "finesse stick" or similar trim tool to push the lower ridge over and into its channel (see Figure 7).

c. Using the plastic "finesse stick" or similar trim tool, push on the mid-section area to fully seat the weatherstrip (see Figure 8).

^ Run your finger down this area to feel for any high spots. High spots will indicate where the weatherstrip ridge is not fully seated.

^ Re-seat as needed.

5. Inspect proper weatherstrip installation by carefully lifting up on the weatherstrip slightly.
