Unless the cracking process is stopped, it will continue until the cracks or breaks expand to cover large areas of the windshield. These damages range from small "nicks" to large shattered areas. Most of the smaller damages can be repaired without removing or replacing the windshield thus stopping the cracking process. Windshield repair is accomplished by injecting a bonding agent, referred to as resin, into the broken area. This bonding agent then bonds the glass surfaces together inside the broken area and stops the cracking or breaking process. The Appearance of Your Windshield Repair: The number one purpose of windshield repair is to restore the integrity to the glass and thereby stop the cracking and breaking process. The windshield repair improves the optical clarity of the area. After a repair is completed, the appearance of the broken area improves dramatically, but it does not disappear from sight. There is always slight scarring where the break was filled and it usually can be seen by looking at the glass and focusing on the repaired area. When looking through the glass, vision should not be impaired. If vision is impaired, the windshield should be replaced. Windshield Repair and Insurance: Windshield repair is covered by the comprehensive portion of an individual's insurance policy. All major insurance companies encourage repair. Cost, safety, convenience and your satisfaction are among the reasons insurers suggest repair. Insurance companies have recognized the benefits of windshield repair. As an incentive for their customers to utilize this cost saving procedure most insurance companies will waive the deductible requirement if a windshield is repaired rather than replaced.
