Default Re: Plate Glass Repair

It sounds like our techniques are similar, although I prefer to use tape on the inside and the outside which eliminates the need for curing that outside first, and helps keep a flatter surface on the inside, or at least it does for me.

Great point about the lights. The more power the better, and whenever possible I cure from both sides at the same time to minimize cure time.

Your also right about that most new glass either being insulated or double pane, although I believe safety glass is now required within so many feet of the ground, so a lot of newer construction will have laminated glass on the lower level. That should create some opportunities for the type of repair that windshield repair technicians are more familiar with.
