Windshields Have Come a Long Way

Back in Henry Ford's day, windshields were plainly made of simple glass. Safety wise, this was not the best case scenario. Since then, though, due to cutting edge technology, windshields have come a long way. In 1919, windshields began to be made out of 2 layers of glass with a powerful, binding resin in between to hold together. This has proven to be much safer as windshields are sturdier and don't normally break in a thousand pieces injuring those in the car.

Newer technology has increased the safety of windshield glass. It is significant to have a trained auto glass repair technician repair or install your new windshield. They are trained and have experience and safety is nothing to take lightly. If you hire an untrained person to install your windshield and they do an inferior job, that windshield may not protect you in the event of an accident.

Let the Professionals Do It

It presents itself to the best of us. We're driving along minding our own business and the truck's tire ahead of us lets loose a small rock up into the air. Bam! It connects with our windshield and we feel our heart sink just a little. Our eyes briskly scan the windshield and we see it: A small ding.

Though it is tempting to say to ourselves, "Oh, that's just a little ding. I can wait to get it fixed," I recommend you not to wait. Every day that you hold off that little ding is growing into a crack due to the pressure of the wind hitting it as you drive. If you act briskly, you may be able to repair the crack with a DIY repair kit, which is very cost effective or has an auto glass technician from Carrollton do it rather than waiting until the splinter becomes too large and you'll have to pay to have the whole windshield changed. Don't wait. Procrastination will end up costing you more money in the end.
