Question Installing new wing window glass

I bought new wing windows and side roll up windows for my 69 f100. I also got the frames powder coated since I'm in the middle of re painting the truck.
My question is what do I use to attached the wing windows to the frames? Factory had a gasket but that was removed when they were powder coated and they don't sell a replacement gasket.

Hey there Boo. As I recall there is something pretty thin that holds glass in frame. Unless somebody else comes up with a better source I would call a local glass/windshield company. I know back in the day our local glass shops used to carry stuff like this. Or PM gangstaker. He'll probably know.
