Hey everyone,

I am still practicing on that darn bull's-eye I created. LOL. I am just too excited to wait for actual training right now. I have a very good friend that does WSR. He is on the road right now selling hides and WSR. When he gets back he is supposed to actually give me some training. He primarily uses Liquid Resins. No biggie I will learn with the Liquid Resins but really need and want to learn with the delta bridge. Screenman, I am serious about this business and will not begin actually attempting WSR on customers windshields until I am trained and also feel comfortable with what I am doing. The selling is the breeze for me. Learning the actual WSR is what I need to be trained on. DaveC, thank you for your encouragement and info. on cotacting Delta for help. You are absolutely right about practicing. Jeff from Delta. I actually have the promotional tape. I tend to agree with you on the Ding King video since the bridge they used was somewhat different. When you guys have another training session nearby I will definitely be coming to it. I just wish I could get away and come to Vegas Baby! Darn rustic furniture business gets in my way sometime. Mafsu, you are very right about the learning curve. Hey Greybeard, I did not make it on a customers vehicle. Although it is a rental that I'm driving. I made it yesterday after it was hit by another rock while I was driving so I decided what the heck. It actually was a practice tool from Glass Mechanix. I will keep reading the post and learning here and practicing practicing practicing. I have access to plenty of practice windshields. Graybeard, thank you for the compliment on the website. I actually built the site. I have a professional now that just completed the new site that hopefully will go up very soon. By the way I just bought http://www.mobilewindshield.com!!! Screenman I could not agree with you more. Right again Goldstar.

Thanks everyone for your input,

I will also say the training is worth what-ever it costs, which happens to be very reasonable.
Good pay back time frame.
Besides, a tax write-off trip tp Vegas----priceless!

J. P.,

Always keep in the back of your mind that your goal is to get air out and resin in. You mentioned pressuring the resin in but did not say much about vacuuming the air out. If you don't vacuum early in the repair process, you make your job more difficult by forcing the air out to the extremities. It then has to be vacuumed all the way back to the "pit".

Also, learn to probe flex the break so that you can open up the cracks and crevices. This is usually best accomplished by putting direct pressure on the break as close to the injector tip as possible (without breaking the tip seal).

Best of Luck,

Daveycrewcut
