Thank you! Excellent video! I am now buying tools and learning to become a windscreen fitter by myself as so many people refused to teach me. I even applied for a trainee technician job and got refused without a reason! I learned a few things from you! I will watch more videos on your channel

Always good to see someone do a clean professional job no shortcut

tHE BEST WINDSHIELD REPLACEMENT TUTORIAL IN KZread!!

This is awesome, I recently got a job as a glass technician at a really professional glass service place, but I have no idea what I’m doing lol the guys there are really cool and very good at their jobs but they aren’t the best teachers. It’s nice to see some one give a really detailed rundown of how to do this kind of stuff. Thank you!

I just got a job as a window tech as well I start on the 24th of this month 🎉

Relaxing even just to watch this. Nice job.

We recently got banned from using extractors in our district, bummer since I never learned to use them so thanks for the instructional video 👍

Using a cold knife is fine for damaged screens but NOT for salvaging. (for us mortals). I would say 150lb mono fishing line + wood handles, soapy water spray + patience for salvage. Those glass scrapes will result in cracks in the winter. Great video for those who can source a replacement without going to the breakers yard.

I didn’t click into my head at all you work with safelite I saw your tools and I’m like , hey those are the same tools I use until I saw your stand it hit me

is there a dot line in the windsheild?

Where did you get that electric chisel from?

Is that a hackzall modified in any way to work with the express blades or just simply plug and play?

@jsautoglass6029

It’s not modified whatsoever it’s just a hacksaw with the blade they sell from equalizer I will say do not use this tool method on difficult jobs only use them on quick simple jobs to finish faster you’ll break the blades a lot quicker if you use them on difficult jobs

@@jsautoglass6029 thanks for a quick reply! I'll keep that in mind. Appreciate the insight.

Very good informative video. The only downside in this demonstration was the pack of protection applied to the inner sills of the vehicle. I mean that they could be marked or contaminated by your footwear whilst standing up on them during the cold cut and glue application. You did mention that you never put your feet in to the cars footwell, you can if you protect further.

Excellent job

Do you need to use the tool to cut the urethane at the bottom of the windshield or would the cold knife work too?

@johnd7190

2 жыл бұрын

You can't really use it at the bottom because of the urethane bead being either really thick or far away from the glass where the blade won't reach. A cheaper alternative would be metal wire.

Wish we could use extractors. Not even allowed to use a cold knife unless the glass is caved in

no primer? might rust the pinchweld

im about 5 months into the glass industry. I work for one of the larger companies in the country. Just wondering if you learned on your own or if you worked for a larger company and then started your own business? nice work with that cold knife and extractor

Crazy dude hammers the mirror off you know equalizer makes a tool for those. Otherwise use a small flathead and just pull the mirror off. Risk scratching the bottom of the mirror that way especially with a metal hammer

Nice job

Thanks

At 2:03, the side part he is taking it out from both sides. What is that called? The guy who replaced the windshield lost one of those and I am struggling to find even what it is called. Please help.

@@jsautoglass6029 I usually use a rubber mallet on those. Sometimes it takes so much force to hit the mirror back on it can pull the windshield down if it’s not taped to the roof still. Rubber mallets are nice because it won’t damage the headliner or scratch the dash.

The glue we use actually does come with primer already made into it I think in the video we did explain how we primed the glass but I don’t typically prime the actual vehicle where the glue will be shot unless there is a bare metal. You can over prime a vehicle to the point where the next technician that comes out will have difficulty cutting out the glass always make your job easier for the next guy because the next person could be you

Why didnt you use a bat? Wouldve been faster than using a cold knife. Especially since the glass wasnt damaged on any of the sides. The line wouldve cut thru much faster.
