How do you seal a windshield?

Im not trying to do it. But tommorrow some worker from a company is coming to replace my windshield. My neighbor told me to make sure that they seal it, because some companies try o get away with just putting them in, but not sealing them.



So I know he is actually doing it right, how do you seal a windshieldHow do you seal a windshield?
First of all they should NEVER touch the edge of the glass with their bare hands. Also, they should rip out your old seal down to about 2/10th of a centimeter. Next, they will rub a polymer activator substance along your old seal, and then they will squirt a black caulking where the window goes, then they will place in the window and make sure it is centered. PLEASE be sure to not drive your car immediately after wards because if the windshield sealant isn't dry, and you are in an accident, the windshield will pop right out and let the roof of your car cave in.
