Windshield
Damage and How It Occurs: When a road pebble or rock collide with a
windshield, it chips the outer layer of glass, creating a chip or small
crack. The chipped glass particles become surrounded by tiny air pockets,
causing visual distortion. These stone chips and small cracks happen
all the time. The Principle of Auto Glass Repair: This popular procedure
evacuates the air to fill the cavities with a specially formulated liquid
resin which when cured with ultra-violet light clears the distortion
and bonds the loose glass preventing the damage from spreading. Not
All Damage Is Alike: No two stone chips are identical. They may look
alike, but they're different in many ways. Some are as small as your
fingernail, while other type of damage can be as large as a half dollar.
As you can see, they come in many different shapes too. What Is A Windshield
Crack? Every year millions of auto glass windshields are damaged by
flying rocks that produce chips, long cracks and bull's-eyes. If left
unrepaired, these fractures will spread into a large crack that becomes
dangerous and unsightly, thus decreasing the value of the vehicle. |
