There is nothing more upsetting than getting a chip on your windshield. Not only it doesn’t look good on your vehicle but it also compromises the structures of your windshield. You might think that a small chip is nothing important and that you should leave it as it is.
Wrong!!! Even the smallest chip can become a big windshield problem if left in disrepair. An untreated chip exposed to the heat or to the cold could potentially grow even bigger. Don’t put yourself in this position and let the professionals at Auto Glass Express help you fix that.
HOW ARE WINDSHIELD CHIP REPAIR?
In order for a chip to be repairable, it must be smaller than a quarter size coin. Most companies will advertise repair cracks the size of a dollar bill but in reality that is impossible. The machines available to do repairs are only able to fix chips that are about an inch big. At Auto Glass Express, we have partnered up with equalizer, DeltaKits, and GlassWeld to obtain the best resins and equipment to make sure we bring your windshield back to its original structure after your repair is done
THE AUTO GLASS EXPRESS CHIPPED WINDSHIELD REPAIR PROCESS
Our experienced technicians are certified and trained to perform chip to the best of their abilities. It is not as simple as putting the repair machine on the windshield. An experienced technician knows that he needs to cool off the windshield to a certain temperature. This will allow an optimal result.
During the windshield chip repair, your local Auto Glass Express technician will:
1. Cool off your windshield with some glass cleaner while protecting the chip
2. Open up the chip with an impactor to assure that there is a clear path for the resin to penetrate
3. Applies prime to cracks and impact point
4. Inject resin with our RAS Head resin injector by DeltaKit
5. Allow resin to penetrate in the cracks for about 5 to 10 minutes
6. Remove RAS head inject and apply a clear film on top of the damaged area
7. Allow curing the resin with a UV Light
8. Remove UV light and the residues of the resin
9. Buff and polish the repaired chip to best match the original windshield surface.
