Here are some do’s and don’ts when dealing with a cracked windshield:

Dos:

  1. Address the crack as soon as possible to prevent it from spreading.
  2. Park your vehicle in a shaded area to prevent direct sunlight and water exposure.
  3. Use clear packing tape to seal the crack and prevent dirt and moisture from getting in.
  4. Consult with a professional auto glass technician to determine the best course of action.
  5. Follow the advice of your technician regarding repair or replacement options.

Don’ts:

  1. Ignore the crack and continue driving your vehicle as usual.
  2. Use DIY repair kits without proper knowledge and expertise.
  3. Use hot water or other extreme temperature changes to fix the crack.
  4. Attempt to repair the crack more than once as the resin injection process cannot be repeated.
  5. Delay getting the crack fixed as it can compromise the safety of your vehicle and passengers.
