need Guidance Diagnosing Your Windshield Repair Needs?
Chevrolet of Bend can help with your windshield replacement. Give us a call at (541) 205-0717 and ask us any questions you might have.
Is it a Substantial Crack or a Small Scratch?
In case your window has a chip that looks just like a bull's-eye, a B.B. chip or a flowered chip, then an epoxy resin could be a fairly easy quick solution to save you money, which may either be done by a repair technician or by yourself, at home, with a window repair kit.
Whenever you can run your fingernail across the crack and it doesn't get snagged, and if the chip is around 1-inch, then a lower viscosity window resin can be employed in the repair process, which means if you're comfortable restoring your windshield yourself, an at home repair kit will be all you need.
When you've got spider web cracks or any surface area damage bigger than an inch, you'll presumably need to replace your entire window to prevent the glass from splintering more. If you're uncertain of your auto glass repair needs, call Chevrolet of Bend at (541) 205-0717 and schedule an appointment to have our certified GM mechanics take a look.

What Exactly is The Difference Between Epoxy Windshield replacement and Auto Glass Repair Services?
For the BEND Self-Repairer - Repair Carefully
It's strongly suggested to never begin to repair your windshield yourself unless you possess a lot of know-how working with the various tools involved with changing windows or administering epoxy. The reason for caution is that you simply want to avoid creating any more harm to your windshield or to yourself, and you want to ensure the repair method you choose is the suitable fix.
Resins are graded dependant upon viscosity. Lower viscosity - the level usually obtained in at home repair kits - implies the epoxy is thinner while higher viscosity resins have a thicker, commercial-grade epoxy. Commercial-grade epoxy resins additionally, the tools required to administer the resins ordinarily are not sold in retailers. At home windshield repair kits usually really don't offer industrial quality epoxy resins, so this means retailer epoxy resins usually possess a limited repair success.
