240zwannabe Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 Is it absolutely necessary to remove windshield/windows and headliner when repairing rust and repainting? that is a very broad question. as far as windows being removed for paint, this is not completely necessary, they make a blue tape (i guess you could call it) with a hard side that you slide under the rubber gasket and fold over which allows you a perfect line so you don't paint the gasket or not paint the car due to a tape line. but, if you want it done right removing all glass is the way to go! rust repair/welding and windows don't go good together, the slag from welding puts small chips in glass...no bueno. also, if your welding on the roof and you want your headliner it is a good idea to take it out.
