ABSTRACT:
A method for repairing a crack in a windshield wherein the windshield has an outer glass member and an inner-glass member, and wherein the crack is disposed within either the outer glass member or the inner glass member. The method includes the steps of (a) applying pressure to either the outside glass member or the inside glass member, depending in which glass member the crack is disposed, to expand the width of the crack; (b) depositing a repair material at predetermined positions within the crack to allow the deposited material to flow within and fill the crack by capillary action; and (c) creating an anaerobic activity upon said crack.
