Applying Rain X Windshield repair

The Rain-X Windshield repair works best when the crack is fresh. Before commencing the repair, remove dust and dirt using a clean microfiber towel or other tools for cleaning your windows. Below is a step-by-step guide to repair your windshield cracks and chips using Rain X Windshield repair:

1. Remove loose glass fragments by scraping over it with a razor blade. Affix the applicator base to the windshield. Place the center ring above the break and put the suction cups to the windshield. Do not allow the suction cups to cover any cracks extending from the central impact point. You can adjust the suction cups as the legs are quite flexible.
2. Screw the resin chamber into the center ring until touching impact point. The device is bendable so you can re-maneuver the device until the rubber mouth is directly on top of the impact point. Check the alignment from inside the car. Screw down the resin chamber (turning clockwise) so the rubber mouth is flat against the windshield. Remember to turn it completely, but gently, so it touches the glass. Excessive pressure will alter the original curve of the glass affecting the flow of the repair resin and effectiveness of the repair.
3. Squeeze 3-6 drops of the repair resin (drops may increase depending on the extent of the damage) into the resin chamber. Turn the resin chamber clockwise if resin leaks out of the bottom of resin chamber.
4. Screw pressure driver into the resin chamber to drive the resin into the break. Tighten until the pressure is almost screwed all the way in. Make sure the rubber mouth has opened wide. Allow 4-6 minutes, depending on the extent of the damage. Apply heat on the windshield with a hot air gun.
5. Unscrew and remove pressure driver from the resin chamber to release any air trapped in the chamber. Make sure there is no air bubble remaining in the break, by looking at the glass at an angle of 45⁰. For chips or bull’s eyes, examine the glass from behind the damage area. Repeat step 4 or 5 until your desired results are achieved. Make sure there is enough repair resin or add more repair resin if needed.
6. Remove the device by turning the resin chamber and pressure driver together to counter clockwise. Wipe excess repair so it will not drip down the chamber. Add a drop of the repair resin in areas where there is still visible damage. Cover it with a curing strip for the finishing touches.
7. When the entire application is complete, move the car to direct sunlight for about 5 to 10 minutes. Remove curing strips. Scrape clean the hardened excess resin with the razor blade.

The most successful repairs are when it is done soon after the damage occurs. Be mindful that it may not work, when the crack is over 12 inches in length and extends to the edge of the windshield. The repair also won’t work if the crack is not in the outer layer of glass.
