The Process and Q & A How is it
done? * The windshield is cleaned and visually inspected and
any loose glass is removed from the impact point. * A small
hole may be drilled into the break to allow access for the
resin, if necessary. * A Bridge & Injector assembly is
mounted over the break. * A polymer resin is injected into
the break where it cures and bonds the separated glass. * A
series of polishing and buffing steps are applied to restore
the clarity and structural strength of the glass. The resins
are optically matched to a refractive index of 1.51,
matching that of glass and hardened with a bond as strong as
the original glass. * The resin is cured by ultra-violet
light, restoring the original strength to the glass. * The
impact point, or drill hole is filled with pit filler, and
also cured. Any excess pit filler is removed, and the
windshield is thoroughly cleaned. |
