Volara Foam Cushion (Step 7)

7. Attach Volara adhesive backed strips to rebate.

We placed the Volara strip 1/16 inch from the sight edge. It is important the Volara strip is attached only to the inside top of the frame rebate (the underside of the 'lip' of the frame), not the sides. The glass will rest more uniformly on the Volara cushion/seal. The glass was often very small for the frame opening size and could shift and pop out of the rebate. To keep the glass from shifting we placed 1/8-inch wide rag board strips between the glass edges and the rebate wall. These rag board strips were secured in position with 3M 415 adhesive tape holding the rag board strip to the Volara strip.
