Windows F32 Clean View
A few posts earlier that seemed to confuse members about what I was attempting to accomplish.

Re: Windows F32 Clean View
Won't that leave a gap and a lot of drafts ?

Re: Windows F32 Clean View
What your not seeing is the 1/4" wide piece of weather stripping on 2 of the windows (look close) ran out for the last window in the image.

Re: Windows F32 Clean View
So how are you 'locking' them closed now? Are you using the old slide clip but just glass on glass - and doesn't that mess with your weatherstripping?

Re: Windows F32 Clean View
Looks good! I want to tint my windows and get rid of the chrome. I had planned on trying to paint them black as I want a cleaner look as well. I may have to give this a try.
Was it hard to remove chrome? Would it be reusable if things go south?
Thank you.

Re: Windows F32 Clean View
Thanks for the offer, Ken. I'll probably wait until I'm closer to tackling the project, or at least at the boat before I call.
This is a great forum; always learn something.
Thanks again.

Re: Windows F32 Clean View
Away,did you not have any screens on yours ? How do you open or close those side windows now.

Re: Windows F32 Clean View
Have the screens and the tracks. The tracks are in place, loose, the screens are stored behind the side panels. If required takes two minutes to install all four screens. Easy peasy.
