AR67.10-P-1600-02MCC Repair Windshield







1 Tool holder
2 Clamping lever
3 Inspection mirror
4 Milling cutter
5 Stone impact cracker
6 UV curing lamp
7 Bow-shaped blade
8 Filler resin
9 Finish resin
10 Injector
11 Curing foil
12 Cleaning agents
13 Adhesion gel
14 Finish polish







1 Tool holder
3 Inspection mirror
10 Injector







10 Injector
10.1 Rubber nozzle
10.2 Filler opening
10.3 Injector piston
10.4 Piston thread

1 Place tool holder (1) on windshield so that it is not in the area of the damaged point.
2 Press suction cup of tool holder (1) onto windshield with clamping lever (2) in vertical position.
To improve adhesion of suction cup moisten with thin layer of adhesion gel (13).
3 Arrest tool holder (1) on windshield by moving clamping lever (2) down.
4 Screw injector (10) into tool holder (1) until rubber nozzle (10.1) makes slight contact to windshield.
5 Mark cracks extending from end of damaged point using suitable pen to check whether cracks have become longer.
6 Remove tool holder (1) and position so that rubber nozzle (10.1) of injector (10) is located at center of damaged point.
7 Arrest tool holder (1) on windshield by moving clamping lever (2) down.
If the cracks extending from the damaged point increase, immediately reduce pressure by unscrewing injector (10) from tool holder (1) to prevent the windshield from breaking.
8 Screw injector (10) into tool holder (1) until rubber nozzle (10.1) on injector (10) makes contact with windshield all-round.
The contact pressure is indicated in the inspection mirror (3) by the edge of the rubber nozzle (10.1) becoming a darker red or deforming edge (10.1).
9.1 Completely unscrew injector piston (10.3), moisten piston thread (10.4) with a drop of filler resin (8) and fill 12 drops of filler resin into the filler opening (10.2).
When reusing new injector (10).
9.2 Completely unscrew injector piston (10.3) and fill three to five drops of filler resin into filler opening (10.2)
When reusing used injector (10).
10 Provide for sufficient pressure by screwing in injector piston (10.3) (picture B).
Observe deformation of rubber nozzle (10.1) of injector (10) to achieve good repair results. The opening is widened (picture B) if sufficient pressure is present.
The pressure should not be present more than 90 s.
11 Hold injector (10) to prevent unscrewing from tool holder (1) and provide for vacuum by unscrewing injector piston (10.3) up to the thread end (picture A).
Observe deformation of rubber nozzle (10.1) to achieve good repair results. The opening is smaller (picture A) if sufficient vacuum is present. Do not remove injector piston (10.3) beyond end of thread to ensure that vacuum is maintained.
The thread end is indicated by a cracking noise when unscrewing. Maintain vacuum at least as long as pressure. The longer the better.
12 Increase contact pressure of injector (10) on windshield by screwing injector (10) into tool holder (1).
Observe damaged points coming from cracks to prevent additional damage.
13 Repeat steps 10 to 12 (8 to 12 times). Increase time of pressure 50 % for each repetition.
The air is completely removed, when air pockets are no longer visible under vacuum after an additional waiting time. Air not completely removed can be recognized as small black spots. Perfect repair does not have black spots. Otherwise, repeat until air pockets are no longer visible.
14 Check results by holding white background behind.
If the repair results are not satisfactory, repeat steps 10 to 14 by maintaining longer pressure and vacuum (2 to 5 minutes) until air pockets are no longer visible.
15 Cut off an approx. 2 to 3 cm strip of curing foil (11) with bow-shaped blade (7).
16 Loosen clamping lever (2) and pivot tool holder (1) to side using injector (10).
As long as the filler resin (8) is not yet cured, it is possible to continue work at any time.
17 Slightly wipe out filler resin (8) in damaged point using lint-free cloth.
18 Apply a drop of filler resin (9) at top of damaged point and attach prepared strip of curing foil (11) first at bottom of mark and lay over area of impact.
Avoid formation of air pockets. Do not press curing foil (11) down; this could endanger the repair result.
If applicable, repeat operation.
19 Remove injector (10) from tool holder (1) and screw in injector piston (10.3) one thread.
20 Store injector (10) in opaque bag to prevent filler resin (8) from curing.
Storing filler resin (8) and injector (10) at 4 °C to 8 °C in a refrigerator prolongs applicability significantly.
21 Position UV curing lamp (6) above area of impact, switch on and allow filler resin (9) to cure for at least 5 minutes.
22 Switch on UV curing lamp (6) and remove.
