Glass Restoration
Automotive Glass
Keep your vehicle original without having to replace irreplaceable or otherwise difficult to acquire and expensive glass replacement.
Unfortunately we do not do windscreen scratch repair on modern vehicles as it is normally cheaper to replace the glass.
What we can repair:
HARD WATER STAINS
Hard water, when left to dry on the glass, can leave behind mineral residue as the water evaporates. The buildup of mineral deposits eventually becomes visible and will inhibit safe driving vision. The hard water stains appear as white or opaque circles on the glass.
ACID STAINS
Many vehicles are washed with a soap and acid mixture to more effectively remove grime and debris. When the acid mixture is allowed to dry on the surface of the glass it will lightly etch the glass which interferes with the clarity of the glass. The acid staining appears to be dried soap suds on the glass that won't wash or rinse off.
REMOVE OUTGASSING
After a number of years, plastic dashboards emit vapours from the vinyl on to the inside of the windshield glass. After years of accumulation, the surface becomes very difficult to clean. The smear of the vinyl residue can make light appear diffused and inhibit safe driving vision.
DEEP CLEANING
The surface of glass is rough and uneven when viewed under a microscope. These irregularities trap dirt and other debris that adds up to inhibit clear viewing through the glass. The glass appears dingy and less than clear and sparkling.
