Windscreen Repair System Fast, easy, professional repairs just a single windscreen repair per day = 20,000 Euro in a year All automotive windscreens are laminated. The two layers of glass are permanently bonded together by a plastic membrane. If something hits a laminated windscreen, like a flying stone, the glass will not shatter. Cover the chip with an UV film and use an ultra-violet light to harden the resin. Finally, polish the glass clean – and it is immediately safe secured in a 99% repair quality. This is because the damaged area sticks to the plastic membrane – and this is why the stone chip in the windscreen can be repaired. The total time consumption of a complete windscreen repair process is only approx. 15 minutes or lower. The first important step is to check that the damaged area is clean and tidy. The next step is to suck all the air out of the chip with a vacuum, and inject it with a clear windscreen resin, the HBC DualX2, before reversing the vacuum in order to force the resin to fill out the chip.
