Windshields used to be held in place by a rubber gasket that fit around the edge of the glass. When airbags were introduced, when deployed, they would often blow the windshield completely out of the car, leaving the occupants subject to being ejected from within the vehicle. The answer was to use urethane-based adhesive, to glue the windshield much more securely into place. There was a steep learning curve for the auto glass technicians as they perfected the removal & replacement tools & techniques involved with the new system.

Nothing to do with airbags, A: during a collision a bonded in screen is less likely to fly out, B: a windshield is unlikely to shatter into dangerous pieces and fall into the cabin C: Windshields then became an extra piece of the structure for a car.

You can apply to windshield or to body both have pros and cons. A good tech knows when to use each method. Biggest issue with windshield application is when the adhesive is applied to the glass in the wrong position. Really sucks to remove from the interior of the vehicle because the urethane missed the pinchweld.

For those saying the bead is too close to the edge, realize he's trying to get that seal as far out as possible. Otherwise you get a cavity that can form, collect dirt (which means moisture) and have a higher chance to rot the frame later on.
@SirEpifire Жыл бұрын
Different model cars have different applications. Typically, if you run a bead of glue that close to the edge of the glass, it can actually wrap around the windshield when pressed in and make the removal process a nightmare if it ever needs changed again. So, if you're removing a windshield installed by the factory, you can look at where the old bead was run. And if it had a small gap off the edge from the factory, you'll want a similar gap. Too close to the edge and you'll get that unwanted wrap-around. Too far from the edge and you'll ooze into the interior. You also want to take a close look at the thickness of the bead that was left on the body (pinchweld) to see how deep you want to cut the "V" in the caulking (Urethane) tip. Typically, 1/4" taller than the original bead to allow for it to make good contact, and smoosh to the correct thickness once pressed in. And there are very few applications where it's best to run the bead directly on the glass. Typically, I prefer to run it directly on the body of the vehicle, directly overtop the old bead. I use the edge of the body to guide the caulk tip to keep my bead on track. And don't press the windshield in too hard or you'll get that ooze I was talking about, as well as make the next removal unnecessarily difficult.

Running on the glass is personal preference in my opinion. That far out (using the edge of the glass) is definitely not suitable on vehicles where there is no mounding. Just flush glazed, and a finished edge on the glass. Like a Volkswagen or a newer Jeep. If u look, u will see a nicely painted body and the edge of the glass about 1/8” inch space between body and glass. This technology would be a disaster! Imagine a white colored car. Now picture this guy running glue right to the edge. Sets the glass… and now u see the urethane sticking out of the sight line against a white paint job! Not so nice! Suddenly this guy who ran such a beautiful bead… looks incompetent and unprofessional. Also depending on what type of glue he is using, he can set and just allow the weight of the glass to settle the bead, or he pushes the glass into the bead… Sometimes is the best place to run it, sometimes the worst place to run it! Just because he runs a nice bead, don’t mean he a great installer. But I’d be willing to bet, he’s good… like me!

Better to apply to the pinchweld in most instances, some require intricate and precise placement of the bead that's near impossible to replicate on the glass. Take the old bubbly Ford Thunderbird for instance. Bottom bead snakes around like the Nile. Source: I own a glass shop.

Windshields used to be held in place by a rubber gasket that fit around the edge of the glass. When airbags were introduced, when deployed, they would often blow the windshield completely out of the car, leaving the occupants subject to being ejected from within the vehicle. The answer was to use urethane-based adhesive, to glue the windshield much more securely into place. There was a steep learning curve for the auto glass technicians as they perfected the removal & replacement tools & techniques involved with the new system.
safelite repair safelite replace
@@dannyrg7😂😂
Nothing to do with airbags, A: during a collision a bonded in screen is less likely to fly out, B: a windshield is unlikely to shatter into dangerous pieces and fall into the cabin C: Windshields then became an extra piece of the structure for a car. Many cars had bonded in screens before airbags became mainstream.
We bonded them in place as far back as 60s and 70s models.

"this is how adhesive is applied to a windshield"
and a pro won't apply it to the windshield because now you can't pick it up without fucking it up. you put it on the car.
Typically applied on the pinchweld.
I never once glued the glass in 19 years of fitting. Always preferred putting onto the body
Only noobs apply to the glass. Goes on the pinchweld.
You can apply to windshield or to body both have pros and cons. A good tech knows when to use each method. Biggest issue with windshield application is when the adhesive is applied to the glass in the wrong position. Really sucks to remove from the interior of the vehicle because the urethane missed the pinchweld.
Very good lines, however you shouldn’t set the urethane on the glass because when you set it on the pinch weld it can cause air pockets. Great set tho
Your 100% right.
totally personal preferance yes i shoot the body 95% of the time but jeep wranglers i shoot glass 100% of the time and never have air leaks
@timothyabelovsky2235 exact same. I feel it's a little different for those tho, as they are basically flat glass and can be done perfectly with handset, if done by someone experienced.
I can’t confirm what you’ve said is true but what I can confirm is that the primer is applied to the glass like this in numerous manufacturers assembly lines. As a lean manufacturing engineer who’s worked in multiple assembly lines they have big robots which apply the primer to the glass autonomously without human error. Doing this on a moving line would mean the robotic arms would have to move with the line for precision and doing so would be very expensive.
Always glass never had any leaks
This technique is brilliant. It saved me on my vintage truck restoration when we could not source the rubber profile

@@terrydoherty6696 - thats in an assembly line! But in the field,, you have one primer for the glass and another for the metal on the car because you have to scrape the old urethane off and that leaves scratches on the metal which will rust if you do not prime it! But what I was talking about is most people put the urethane on top of the fresh primer on the metal of the car, not on the glass.

For those saying the bead is too close to the edge, realize he's trying to get that seal as far out as possible. Otherwise you get a cavity that can form, collect dirt (which means moisture) and have a higher chance to rot the frame later on.
Different model cars have different applications. Typically, if you run a bead of glue that close to the edge of the glass, it can actually wrap around the windshield when pressed in and make the removal process a nightmare if it ever needs changed again. So, if you're removing a windshield installed by the factory, you can look at where the old bead was run. And if it had a small gap off the edge from the factory, you'll want a similar gap. Too close to the edge and you'll get that unwanted wrap-around. Too far from the edge and you'll ooze into the interior. You also want to take a close look at the thickness of the bead that was left on the body (pinchweld) to see how deep you want to cut the "V" in the caulking (Urethane) tip. Typically, 1/4" taller than the original bead to allow for it to make good contact, and smoosh to the correct thickness once pressed in. And there are very few applications where it's best to run the bead directly on the glass. Typically, I prefer to run it directly on the body of the vehicle, directly overtop the old bead. I use the edge of the body to guide the caulk tip to keep my bead on track. And don't press the windshield in too hard or you'll get that ooze I was talking about, as well as make the next removal unnecessarily difficult.
@@jasonhohman7702 Thankyou for the detailed response! I mostly do sheet metal work on the cars, so you can imagine how I feel about window frames being collection points.
There's also a chance the bead misses the pinch weld or body
Running on the glass is personal preference in my opinion. That far out (using the edge of the glass) is definitely not suitable on vehicles where there is no mounding. Just flush glazed, and a finished edge on the glass. Like a Volkswagen or a newer Jeep. If u look, u will see a nicely painted body and the edge of the glass about 1/8” inch space between body and glass. This technology would be a disaster! Imagine a white colored car. Now picture this guy running glue right to the edge. Sets the glass… and now u see the urethane sticking out of the sight line against a white paint job! Not so nice! Suddenly this guy who ran such a beautiful bead… looks incompetent and unprofessional. Also depending on what type of glue he is using, he can set and just allow the weight of the glass to settle the bead, or he pushes the glass into the bead… Sometimes is the best place to run it, sometimes the worst place to run it! Just because he runs a nice bead, don’t mean he a great installer. But I’d be willing to bet, he’s good… like me!
Nice bead no voids,no leaks 😀😀👍

This is an electric pump to ensure a consistent bead.. the tip ensures that the bead of adhesive is tall enough to make contact on both mating surfaces so that the bead can smush evenly without gaps for water to pass through which would leak undo the car.

I did auto glass for a few years(2015-2018) and they always told us to shoot the glass and I refused. Luckily I was a mobile tech and rarely had warranties so I would just shoot the body and know it was a solid seal with minal adjustments after setting the glass

I always ran the urethane on the pinch weld. After I primed it and the glass.
tak boleh lawan abang rong.. dia punya resort 😂😂❤
The reason it's applied to the windshield, because less joints are made,thus reducing leakage.When applied to the body more joints are made,swapping from left to right especially in the centre top.
What about if the bottom of the glass bead doesn’t land perfect on the pinchweld
Better to apply to the pinchweld in most instances, some require intricate and precise placement of the bead that's near impossible to replicate on the glass. Take the old bubbly Ford Thunderbird for instance. Bottom bead snakes around like the Nile. Source: I own a glass shop.
Profissional é outro nível 👏👏👏👏👏👏
CLEAN AF!
접착면이 일정하면 문제가 없지만 라운드가 심한 유리면일수록 차체에 도포하는게 안전합니다 유리에 실링방법은 편리하고 깔끔하지만 누수로인한 하자가 종종 걸립니다
True!
I tried installing my own windshield once, and 60mph later, I decided to leave it to the professionals! ...And the guys driving behind me couldn't agree more
Did you let the resin sit for a half a day?, if you drive off straight after putting it in, that happening is natural, for reference, I did a 250 kmh run in my accord euro after installing my own front wind screen lol
@@kronomancerr4965 in an accord? For the Americans (such as myself) that's 165mph.
Hope you didnt use resin 😂
@@ItzGreenG polyurethane I mean
Me too, 5 years later its still sitting in the garage 😔
It is so awesome seeing someone who is great at their job🥰👍
We used to put the kit on the old removed path on the car so you can never misplace the windshield
I was today years old when i just now figured out that the black strip around the windshield is NOT one whole piece of rubber (like the ones on fridges) 😅😅😅 I learned something new today!! 😁😁💯
Reminds me of my dad, he was a windshield technician for 35 years. Miss you dad R.I.P.
He's very talented. I bet he's done quite a few of these. It looks so cool too
I changed the windshield glass on my Chevy myself. I used BlackFox glue and a regular hand tool for application. It's wery simple.
I love how he shows one step out of all the missing steps towards changing a windshield 😌
The v cut on the caulk tube was on point. Did auto glazing a while.
See it all the time since i work at a body shop, it gets pretty tiring after a while and the best weather for it to be changed its when its humid as hell, you don't want it to be cold or hot because the glue gets dry to quickly
Nice to see one of these shorts where somebody actually cares about doing a great job and does it.
How do you know he did a good job?
@@gjsrkybecause the bead was at the right height, the top of the bead was at a point, and the urethane was applied in the correct location to seal the glass perfectly to the body of the car. Yes, I have auto glass experience
@@Pandora_369 40 year auto technician. I say it aint done correctly, till its done... I have set head gaskets on an engine block beautifully... It wasn't done correctly, until I finished the job and confirmed the repair...
Was an auto glass installer for 20 plus years . Brings back a lot of memories
Why is the bead so tall?
@@michaelbeary after the glass is set , it has to be decked meaning it is pushed down in the opening flattening the bead .
@@michaelbeary just wondered if you were as fast as this dude?
Perfect run. Good job dude.
and that my friends is how its done. It helps when you don't have to release your grip from the calking gun so you can keep squeezing. It isn't as hard as it looks. Like I said. THe electric pressure being continuous is 90%
That was perfection. Definitely not the first rodeo.
That technician has some smooth skills. He would laugh at me pretty hard if he saw how I caulk around tubs or windows
Using a mechanical caulking gun makes it a lot easier to be that smooth.
I remember back years ago we didn’t have mechanical caulk gun we used the same ones u used for the windows that took some skill
@@mikeswope366 I worked in the glass cell of a Chrysler/ Dodge plant decking the rear sail panel on the Magnum by hand. Having the sealer at the right temperature helps.
@@davidpetersen1 yea a hot glue helps
@@mikeswope366 We used a version of urethane. Toxic stuff.
My opinion best to do the aperture just in case the glass is out of shape also that way you never get glue on trims ect
This is the best part🔥and the only fun part😂
Always apply the adhesive to the car itself, not on the new windshield. The bead should always match the old glue, and if you don't apply it on the car itself you might miss it and it won't hold and you might end up having a leaking windscreen if you're unlucky 🤷🏼♂️
Yeah… stick to flipping burgers!
@@dougtibbetts857 in a way he is correct applying the adhesive to the body directly allows you to better see if there's any low spots where you may not get enough contact, the glass is smooth the pinchweld is not always
Not always. Depends on the window and the hole.
@@theonlyroyaltygamer6301 szyba też jest wygięta😂😅
Very slick bro!! Very clean!!!
That is clean work. Some guys got a whole lot of shaping with the plastic knoves after laying a line.
That was my first ever job at Toyota. 275 windscreens a day in 1987
Это круто ! В то время были классные машины. На какие модели вы клеили стёкла?
Toyota Camry
Across the state maybe
@@bluehills38right?
We got ourselves a Brit here
Give this man a raise! Good job
The glass (crystal) of the clock in some higher end cars cost more to replace.
My first job in highschool (2003ish) was replacing auto glass and had to do this by hand all day lol.
Right around the frit band. Used to work at Safelite Auto. Start at the bottom so theres no water leaks from rain or carwash come all way around and go past start point so you can smooth and close the gap for no wind noise. What i used to do with the molding on top was put it on activate, prime it then run a thin bead and smooth it let it dry so it wouldnt fly off down the road later. Nice bead my guy
that extra step with gluing the molding down helps alot when you have the molding that caps over the body
This guy sure knows how to handle his caulk-
😂🤣
Hallo. Wat is means caulk? And how it relevance to this demonstration video presentation?
Called an extractor buddy, not a caulk gun
@@Bhatt_Holecaulk is a silicone adhesive/sealant that is used in many trades but mainly in plumbing. You'll find caulk anywhere there is water in your house unless it's done wrong lol
@@Bhatt_Holelmao
Nice bead cleanest form I’ve seen on here yet. Gonna have hella squeeze out on the sides tho. Better to shoot the body than the glass. Don’t have miss places beads and have less leaks. 7 year master tech from Safelite💪🏻, keep up the good work gentleman!
I did glass for 17 years.. loved the job but age caught up with me
I’ve glazed windows and even hurricane windows so this was actually really cool to watch. It’s not easy for those who haven’t done this before.
That’s why a 6th grade education is required. Weeds out the riff raff.
That is one way to lay down the urethane. The problem I see with putting the urethane directly onto the windshield instead of the car’s pinch weld is, hopefully your suction cups don’t fail while you have the windshield hanging over the hood of the car.
They're heavy duty suction cups. I've never seem one fail if they were pumped properly.
