Taking proper care of your new windshield is essential to ensure its longevity and maintain optimal visibility while driving. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you keep your windscreen in pristine condition:
1. Avoid Slamming Doors
When closing the doors of your vehicle, avoid slamming them forcefully, as the impact can cause vibrations that may affect the adhesion of the windshield to the frame.
2. Wait for Adequate Cure Time
If you’ve had a windshield replacement, allow the adhesive to cure properly before driving your vehicle. Your technician will provide guidance on when it’s safe to drive.
3. Keep It Clean
Regularly clean your windshield to remove dirt, debris, and bug splatters. Use a soft, non-abrasive microfiber cloth and a mild glass cleaner.
4. Mind the Wipers
Inspect your windshield wipers regularly and replace them when they show signs of wear. Old or damaged wipers can scratch the glass surface and compromise visibility during bad weather.
5. Avoid Extreme Temperature Changes
Avoid sudden and extreme temperature changes on the windshield, such as pouring cold water on a hot windshield. Such drastic shifts can stress the glass and may lead to cracks.
Following these steps will help you maintain a clear and safe windshield, enhancing your driving experience and ensuring your safety on the road.
