How To Repair A Long Windshield Crack

Teran Marsell | Published on November 4th, 2019

We all hate that moment, driving along the highway at the speed limit. It only takes a few seconds. There’s the moment where a stray pebble or debris soars through the air and hits your windshield. A telltale crack makes you wince. You have to pull over and check the damage, hoping you got a windshield chip instead of a long, cracked layer of glass.

A crack can spread and hinder your driving by reducing your vision. A damaged windshield can lead to more collisions, and in some states, you can even get fined for driving around with one. It can also mess with the airbag in case of a collision, which increases the risk of injury to the driver or the passengers. Whether chipped or cracked, you would rather solve the problem. Sooner rather than later Does this mean you should get a windshield repair kit and fix it on your own? No. We cannot in good conscience recommend that step.

How To Repair Window Tint Scratches

Teran Marsell | Published on October 30th, 2019

No one likes window tint scratches. That telltale sign of light window on a car or truck tells us that we need to make a repair. We are more likely to see them with darker tints since lighter spots will appear marking the scratches. They are a sign of damage, which no person wants to note on their car windows. What Causes Window Tint Scratches? Usually, an external force or object rubs against the tint film and causes it to peel. Debris can gather under each window’s weather stripping and scratch against the tint as you roll them up and down. These can also cause streaks while banging your seatbelts against windows can cause tiny chips. Never wipe a window covered in tint with a paper towel, because the fabrics can also cause scratches. In extreme cases, collisions and accidents can lead to scratches. This would logically happen because the window glass would crack or shatter if stray objects or another car crashed into them. With that said, we recommend in the extreme cases to leave it to the professionals for repairing tint. Our processes are best used for the tiny chips and streaks.
