scratch the paint or primer or otherwise damage the pinch weld during
glass removal.
NOTE:
Insert the blade into the Deluxe Air Knife
300-AST1770E so the flat side is against the glass. This leaves the
entire urethane adhesive bead on the pinch weld and allows a dry fit of
the replacement liftgate window glass.

Using the Deluxe Air Knife 300-AST1770E and working from
inside the vehicle, cut the urethane adhesive from the liftgate window
glass starting at the top center and working toward the bottom corners.
