Windshield Repair

---

While windshield repairs are a great tool to help restore clarity to a windshield and keep the price of fixing the windshield down, there are a lot of misconceptions about the process and what consumers can expect from them. 

1. Windshield Repairs will not make the damage to a windshield disappear completely. The repair process is meant to reduce the visibility of the damage and keep the damage from spreading, but it's simply not true to say that a windshield repair will completely erase the damage.
2. Windshield Repairs will not fix all damage. In general, a windshield repair can only be used to repair damage that's roughly the size of a quarter. Any repair that's larger than that is typically against AGRSS safety standards and requires the windshield to be replaced.

 Rock Chip Repair General Information

• DO NOT WASH THE CAR BEFORE THE REPAIR - always repair windshield first then wash the car after 20 minutes.
  
• DURING THE SUMMER - keep the windshield as cool (not cold) as possible (park in the garage or leave vehicle in shaded area)
  
• DURING THE WINTER - park the vehicle in a garage at night (temperature change could increase the damage and dew/rain in the crack would delay repair).
  
• TEMPERATURE OUTSIDE MUST BE ABOVE 40F - Repairs must be done above 40F for the glue to cure properly.
  
• WHEN RAINING - Tape the damaged area before it gets wet (any tape works, outside only)
