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.
