I like to replace the wiper fluid with Rain X
Great info thanks Scotty
Scotty missed his true calling in life…….as a sound effects man. Best wiper noises I've EVER heard!!!!!!!
I hold my windshield on with DUCT TAPE. Hey, it works for me.
Have to drill stop holes on edges and glue cracks to stop from spreading.
I thought that windshields did not have the vinyl laminate in the middle since the 70's because the head would go through the windshield during a crash. When the forward motion stopped the human would fall back into a sitting position and the shards of glass held together by the laminate would pull close and decapitate the victim. I thought newer windshields shattered into small pieces that are not big enough to lacerate the victim.
First off… let me say I had my windshield replaced by a major company that came out to me "Dafelight" all looked great and i gave the guy a $20 tip after all he was out there for about 3 hours. well 2 days later a crack formed at the top near the center. you could see it was not an impact, the glass cracked and pieces of glass flew out… again no sign of impact. they would not honor warranty on work or glass. lesson learned.. second I have had success stopping small cracks from getting longer… the trick is to get the resin in ASAP, dont allow time for dirt or water to get in. i have done this on my truck with a three inch crack and its been holding now for over 6 years! on my sedan i have a lengthy crack ( 13 inches or so ) that curves from bottom corner up and around on passenger side , its been holding over 2 years.
If you are driving on roads only going 45 mph or less, when a small bit of gravel hits your glass it will only make a small chip, not a crack, and that chip can be fixed with a $15 fix-it kit. But if you drive 65 mph or more and that same rock hits your glass, it's going to create a CRACK in your glass that will need total glass replacement. So the best thing to do to keep your glass lasting a long time is to just slow down and never drive more than 50 mph.
15 million a year. I highy dought
My 1938 Chevrolet Master still has the original glass in it. The date is etched on it.
