How a Windshield Repair is Done
Windshield repair involves squeezing resin into the ding or crack by
a vacuum that seals out air and moisture.
It is then exposed to UV
light to dry the resin to a crystal clear.
Scratches on the windshield
are treated differently.
A glass polishing kit is used to eliminate
scratches by grinding the glass level to the bottom of the scratch to
bring back glass opacity.
The glass is then waxed to smooth
perfection.
If done properly, windshield repair saves you money because it
costs less than windshield replacement.
Though most small
blemishes like nicks, cracks, and scratches can be repaired, a
replacement is recommended for long or spidered cracks that affect
the whole windshield.
Windshield repair may sound simple but nothing can be further
from the truth.
It requires the skillful hands of an experienced
technician whose skills are honed after years of continuous practice
of the craft.
It is beyond the scope of most weekend repair jobs
