Kayline Window Repair

[drohweder]

Just put my Kayline back on over the new roll cage. The old man cranked on the PS rear corner a bit and the rear window seperated about 2cm along the ege. Any tips on how to repair/reinforce this area. I don't really care how it looks, just want something permanent and water tight.

Thanks.

did the window tear, or the vinyl, or the threads ripped? You can go to tap plastics and buy vinyl and just patch and glue it back together. you can also find vinyl at a fabric store like Joannes fabrics.

good luck-

If it is what happened to my soft top, the window let go along it's joint with the canvas along the bottom for a couple of inches. I, too, am curious about the repair. I was going to try crazy glue, but haven't gotten to it, yet.

Someone out there sells an "Iron on" kit. It came with my cruiser when i bought it and i repaired a crack in a top with it. Worked good, but if your actual seem busted that aint gonna help much. Might take it to a place that works on convertable tops and restorations and make sure you bring your checkbook.

The window material tore right along where it is attatched to the top. It seem like it is heat welded together. There has got to be some sort of patch kit.

Any ideas?

I just used a little clear epoxy on mine, seems to work.

What did you use as a patch?
