Reviews

This stuff worked great sealing the windshield on my Cessna. Working time is a little less than 2 hours but if you’re properly setup, an hour is more than sufficient. I taped off the area, applied and smoothed the sealant, then peeled off the tape for a perfect finish. It came out great.

Great product. You need a special caulking gun to accurately place the very thick solution on the windshield or in any crevasse/gaps. Be sure to properly mix the ingredients

Same results as another reviewer below. We prepped the surface very well and applied the sealant. Let it cure for about 5 days. The sealant strip started to separate from the aircraft during the first flight and just flopped around loose during flight. We very easily removed the remainder of it post flight just by pulling it off. It didnt stick to the surfaces at all.

Worthless on a Cessna. Cleaned and prepped IAW directions and had the entire top windshield strip come off and start beating the aircraft right on takeoff. Wont stick to lexan or aluminum. Save your money and use conventional windshield silicone.

Q: Regarding 3M AC-251 B-2 Canopy / Windshield Sealant: Is this product is considered hazardous for shipping? Do you need to use primers on surfaces before?

The material is not considered haz-mat. The surface must be clean and free of any contamination. Primer is not required.

Q: What is the working time of the 3M AC-251 B-2 3.5 OZ - CANOPY / WINDSHIELD SEALANT?

Per the tech data sheet in the Documents tab show the B-2 has a 2 hour working time. Please review the TDS for more details on this product.

Q: How many tubes would be needed to do a windshield?

That is tough to answer because the size of windshields would vary aircraft to aircraft. Most customers buy 2-3 when installing windows.

Q: It looks like once the catalyst is injected into the body of the sealant, included is a tip for application. Do you use a standard caulk gun to apply it?

They would require a special extrusion gun to apply or you can use the included application tip. The gun part number would be 09-38520 for example.

Q: Regarding 3M AC-251 B-2 3.5 OZ - CANOPY / WINDSHIELD SEALANT, is this in a 6 oz application tube? The graphic shows a 6 oz tube, but I understand it is 3.5 oz of sealant.

Yes, this is a 6oz container with a 3.5oz fill.
