Replacing/Remounting The Glass And Glue

History

Wonderful information everyone,

I hope that one day I can contribute about what kinds of adhesive to use to put the glass back on.

And maybe what kind of solvent to use to remove

the old glue. Tear downs are fun but there is much

more to an actual repair. Any suggestions?

Our teardowns are not meant to be used as disassembly instructions, which is why we then go back and create a full set of repair guides for the device. We have a guide for replacing the glass on your iPad. If you're not getting a new glass, you can purchase the adhesive strips to install on your existing glass. As far as cleaning the old stuff off, we use Goof Off! in our office.

I always use the adhesive on the pic below. And I use 99% alcohol to remove whatever is left of old glue on the housing.
