Step 2: Clean and Test Fit
Thoroughly clean the backing plate with rubbing alcohol to remove any residue. Allow it to dry completely. Then, clean the new mirror glass with glass cleaner. Before applying adhesive, test fit your new Burco mirror glass replacement to ensure it aligns correctly with the backing plate.
Step 3: Apply Adhesive
Apply the provided Redi-Stick adhesive pads to the backing plate or directly to the mirror replacement, if applicable. Ensure the paper backing is removed from the adhesive pads to expose the sticky surface. For best results, install in a warm, dry environment. You may supplement with silicone or urethane adhesive if additional adhesion is desired, though the included pads are designed for strong hold.
Step 4: Install Replacement Mirror
Align the new mirror glass replacement with the backing plate. Press the mirror directly onto the backing plate with firm yet gentle pressure. Ensure even contact across the entire surface for secure adhesion.
Step 5: Clean Up
Once the mirror is securely installed, clean the surface of the new Burco mirror glass replacement with glass cleaner to remove any fingerprints or smudges, ensuring clear visibility.
Maintenance
To maintain the clarity and longevity of your Burco replacement mirror glass:
- Regularly clean the mirror surface with a standard automotive glass cleaner and a soft, lint-free cloth.
- Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the mirror coating.
- Inspect the mirror periodically for any signs of loosening or damage.
Troubleshooting
Mirror Not Adhering Properly:
- Ensure the backing plate was thoroughly cleaned and dry before adhesive application. Any grease, dirt, or moisture can prevent proper adhesion.
- Verify that the paper backing was fully removed from the adhesive pads.
- Ensure sufficient and even pressure was applied during installation.
- Confirm installation was done in a warm, dry environment. Cold temperatures can affect adhesive performance.
Mirror Does Not Fit Correctly:
- Double-check the diagonal measurement of your original mirror glass against the product specifications (10 1/16 inches).
- Confirm the shape of the replacement mirror matches your vehicle's original mirror.
- Verify that the product model (Burco 4111) is indeed correct for your specific vehicle make, model, and year as listed in the "Vehicle Compatibility" section.
