Now the old window is out so get ready to install the new one. It's time to remove the urethane sealants from its groove or sandpaper if required. Ensure that you have all the things handy before starting the process.
Step 3
When installing your new window, use a caulk gun to apply a thin line of urethane sealant around the inside edge. Then carefully trace where you want this piece of trimming before cutting it out with precision tools like knives or chisels for an exact fit.
