Windshield Replacement Aftercare Tips

Ask your windshield repair services for the hours required before taking your vehicle for a ride as sometimes it requires only an hour of wait while in other cases it may even take up to 24 hours. It depends on the temperature, humidity, and the type of adhesives used so it is better to ask the service provider directly.
To avoid any chances of getting dirt, dust, rain, or other debris on wet adhesives, leave tape applied by the replacement staff for at least 24 hours.
Avoid car wash and heavy-pressure cleaning jobs for at least two to three days.
Take it easy on your vehicle for the next 24 hours after a fresh replacement job, and by this, we mean to avoid rough driving, door slamming or any kind of rough handling with your vehicle as it may cause the seals to come loose while they’re not completely dry.
Keep a window cracked open to at least one inch after the fresh windshield replacement job as it avoids building pressure in the car and keeps the outside and inside temperature in equilibrium.
