Motorhome window separating

Hi there,

looking for some advice please. Last night we had the full thunder, lightning, and associated wind down here near Bordeaux. One of the windows by the upper bunk in the rear of the motorhome was not properly closed and I noticed this morning that the inner pane is part separated from the outer. Whats the best method to use to reseal please ?

Thanks,

Mack.

It really should be separated completely and re glued with an adhesive suitable for hard plastics. Probably a job best left till you get home. In the meantime I would tape the window closed from the outside as the window latches are attached to the inner pane and you could lose the outer pane as you are driving along if the panes separated fully.

Thing is, it'll fog up now, they,re airtight from new.
