When is UV bounce a good thing?

[splitpit]

I'm sure someone has the correct answer!

Splitpit,

Could you be more specific? Are you referring to reflective UV's effecting a repair or something other?

[splitpit]

Yes, I'm talking about reflective UV rays and windshield repair.

[StarQuest]

OK,

Well personally, since I shield every repair from any UV exposure while repairing I quess the the only good thing that comes to mind, is it helps me get a better tan. Can't think of any other reason that makes it a good thing. If you know of one, please share! Sounds like a trick question.

Sometimes when I'm curing long cracks I will use a mirror to help speed things up a little....

[StarQuest]

Chipperfixer,

Are talking about mirror on outside of sheild?

[splitpit]

Not a trick question. Still waiting for the right answer because I'm sure someone knows!

[StarQuest]

I'm not sure what Splitpit is asking or referring too because he's not being very specific.

If you guys are talking about deflecting sunlite with a mirror, my question is why even bother when you have access to a UV lamp that can provide up to 8 times the UV curing power than the sun provides? I hope you don't mean using a mirror on inside of glass to deflect UV's!

[ChipperFixer]

I'll cure 2 to 3 minutes a jump with my lamp while running ahead with a mirror ......."sometimes" but this does sound like a trick question.

never! Put a light on it if you dont have enough sun only answer why play games ? use the light go on to the next repair
