Hi, I'm Heath Heine with Clearview Windshield Repair here on behalf of Expert Village. In
this clip you are going to see how to repair a clamshell break in your windshield. Okay
now we are going to do a repair on a clamshell. A clamshell is just like the reverse of a
clamshell but it is in the glass this way like a clam would leave in the sand. So now
that is knocked out of the glass. Most cases the clamshell doesn't effect the windshield
as far as cracking out or anything but it is unsightly. It is a dip in the glass and
it can mess up your wiper blades. So what you do with this one instead of drilling directly
in, you want to color in the clamshell part. So you are going to take your drill ever so
easy coloring that in. Now that you have roughed up all the glass on that surface, you will
take some just regular resin, dab this on, take some pit resin apply your patch and make
sure you are getting out all of the air bubbles so mostly th pit resin is just sitting there
on the glass. After this cures, you will scrape this off with your razor blade and now you have a smooth surface across the
glass. Just wipe it down and polish out and you will be done.
