How We Repair Chips in Your Auto Glass
Your Windshield may be repairable if the crack or break can be hidden by a quarter.
A certified technician removes any fine glass dust from the chip and uses a special machine to extract the air from the chip cavity. The chip cavity is then filled with clear acrylic resin and cured with a UV lamp - all in about 30 minutes. The resin is stronger than the windshield itself and is approved by the Department of Transportation, ensuring your complete safety.
