Windshield Repair Forum

Screenman,
Do you use or have ever used a dry star along a crack or how do you remove moisture from a crack?

Yes I do use a drystar and I think it is a great tool. However my preffered method for drying out long cracks is by using compressed air. This I find is by far the quickest method, make sure you do your drill stops first though.

One of the reasons why I prefer the drystar over the torch for drying most damage, is due to the fact that it only heats a small area therefore this area will cool quicker. The blow torch seems to heat a larger area and that area will take longer to cool. Both of these methods can and will crack screens if not used properly. Although this is not a problems as we all know a nice clean new crack is really easy to repair.

Screenman,
Are you using the cans of air like you use to blow off a computer keyboard or are you using an air compressor? Please explain. I am trying to visualize this and understand. I do many NEW cracks but have passed on some that had been wet.
Thanks

I use a compressor I do a lot of cracks for coach and truck companies and have use of a compressor at all of these. Plus the fact that I somtimes carry my own one in the car.

Hi, everybody...

I'm Mexican and I need your help for repair long cracks. The last year I bought a EZK-121 12v Double Bridge Windshield Repair Kit.

So, I need to know if is necessary to use a crack expander to repair any long crack?
Can I make a crack expander for myself or have to buy a manufactured by any company.
