Most stationary windows, specifically windshields, are retained to the body with urethane adhesive which adheres the window to the body. This increases structural integrity. The reinstallation of windows with urethane adhesive requires either partial or complete replacement of the urethane adhesive bead:
| • | The short method (also known as short cut or close cut) is the partial replacement. |
| • | The extended method (also known as long method, full strip or full cut) is the complete replacement. |
