A rock chip might seem like a minor cosmetic blemish, but it represents a structural breach in your windshield that can compromise your safety at any moment. When a stone strikes your glass, it creates a small air pocket or “star” that is highly susceptible to temperature fluctuations; as your car’s heater or air conditioner runs, the glass expands and contracts, eventually forcing that tiny chip to “spider-web” across your entire field of vision. At Preferred Auto Glass Repair, we utilize a high-pressure resin injection system that completely displaces the air within the chip and replaces it with a specialized liquid glass polymer. This material is then cured under UV light to bond at a molecular level, not only making the blemish nearly invisible but also restoring the physical strength of the pane to prevent a costly full replacement.
