3.4 Methods for sealing glass plate sandwich - continued
(A) Gel Slider
™, ( B) Capillary Gel Casting or (C) Gel Sealing Tape
(C) Gel Sealing Tape. Seal the sides and bottom of the assembled glass plate sandwich
with gel sealing tape, as shown. Tape the sides first and then the bottom. Extend the tape
around the bottom corners in both directions to ensure an adequate seal. Apply the tape as
smoothly as possible to avoid forming air channels or bubbles along the edges of the glass
plates. Rub the tape firmly onto glass to eliminate air channels and ensure a liquid-tight
seal. To help prevent the glass plates from sliding apart while taping clamp one side and the
bottom of the sandwich with white spring clamps (Cat. # GPC-0002).
