Can a Scratched Windshield be Repaired?

Depending on the depth and length of the scratch most windshield repairs cannot be done correctly.  If too much surface area of a windshield is removed the optics of the auto glass will become uneven and will result in eye strain for the driver or passenger.  Buffing of auto glass isn’t a simple or quick solution and if too much heat buildup occurs the ending result is usually noticeable blemishes or even a stress crack on the windshield.

Most scratches occur on windshields when wipers blades become old or contaminated.  The hardened rubber or small debris caught in the blades will quickly scratch any surface.  The best way to prevent autoglass scratches are to change your vehicles wipers upon windshield replacement or to drop into your local Speedy Glass Dealer to get fitted with a new pair.  All wiper blade sales come with free installation.

Car & Truck Side Window Replacement Takes About an Hour

Your side window (aka door glass, quarter glass, vent glass) is manufactured very differently than your front windshield.  Unlike your front windshield that comes laminated, most side glass is tempered and when struck with enough force will shatter into thousands of pieces getting tucked in all the hard to reach places inside your vehicle walls.  With a small opening in your vehicle we know that your biggest concern will be keeping the weather out of the vehicle and getting it back to o position where the car is safe.  When the damage happens bring it to Speedy Glass and we will vacuum out all the glass with our specialized vacuums, and if we can’t get the side window delivered same day then we will seal up the hole with a clear Poly film.

At Speedy Glass we have access to large warehouses of vehicle glass to get your car or truck brought back to new. Our company will make sure that the glass is ordered properly to have all the proper electrical and technological attachments required for your vehicle’s functional capabilities.  Give us a call today and bring your vehicle to one of our locations or have our team mobile out to your home or office.
