"The addition of Sika 206 Stix along with Sika Aktivator Pads included in the box of adhesives provides a total systems approach to Auto Glass Replacement bonding," said John King, vice president of the Transportation Aftermarket Business Unit for Sika. "Also, since the 206 Stix are conveniently packaged within the carton of polyurethane, owners will be ensured their installers are using the primers thus reducing their liability with faulty installations."

The single-use packaging also will eliminate the costly possibility of spilling Sika Primer 206 G+P in the can, damaging the customer's vehicle or property. Owners will also no longer be forced to purchase cotton swabs to apply the products.
