Not everything gets used on each job, but is handy when you need it, like stuff to cool or warm the windshield, dry out chips, provide shade if you want.

I like to keep my carry bag lean and mean... efficient. Most times I am out on the dealer lot and carry my stuff around with me, so I don't want to lug everything with me.

But I have plenty more toys and support/backup equipment in my van. Everyone needs a dc/ac inverter for charging drill batts for example.

A 12v electric cooler is standard equipment too, right?

Actually a lot of the stuff I carry in my van is polishing equipment, not wsr.

Bringing a thread back from the depths of cyber space.

What is the BB breaker that is being spoke of here?

GlassStarz my bag only weighs 11 pounds stuffed full 7 bridges and all, the box has extra bits, bb breaker, needles, extra seals and long cure tabs for cracks. On the inside top edge I glued a magnet which holds my razor blades on the out side works kind of cool and there handy and always there.

I think it's a bb with a rubberband through it.
It's used for making a bullseye.

I think that that U.V. bubble dome might just be the best invention since sliced bread,sandwiches and the kitchen sink for the windshield repaireman.

What dealer was that, is it for sale? Some people buy cars to look at, or hope they will go up in value(not my case I drive them, and race them, and enjoy them), I've seen a few with the original window stickes in them and the original 3 miles on the clock(factory test). I have a dealer with a 99 trans am convertable in the showroom, and it's not for sale, he is keeping it for his grandson(who is now 8 years old), talk about a spoiled kid!

Enjoy
