Re: "Temporary" glass installation
The glass shop I go to used to use tape but I don't know what they use now. The urethane sealer wasn't around back when I was having that done though.
As far as taking the windshield and back glass back out I did that a few times when I was working on it over the winter. The "it is best to lay the rubber out in the sun so it gets a bit soft and pliable is a seriously helpful suggestion" Using the right tools and taking your tie is the main thing.
If I had my druthers I'd never handle glass on my own rig again as that is way way down near of the bottom of the list on things I like to do. We have some competent glass shops in this area and I hope I can just take the truck down and say "there it is do it" when that time comes.
