Old windshield wipers, perpetual sand and salt reagents, as well as cheap but soft Chinese glass in tandem lead to exactly one thing: the “frontal” is intact, but already has to be changed, because it has become opaque. Is it just a replacement? There, as the AvtoVzglyad portal found out, the popular version is cheaper.
Absolutely all drivers who have experience driving used cars know that the windshield and side windows are not only affected by stones. Over time, they become rubbed with dirt and sand, and the old, long-worn “wipers” that smear the dirt – the washing machine tends to end, and always at the wrong time – aggravate the image. Year after year, the “plywood” is exposed to exposure, which in turn leads to the formation of a worn, already opaque stain. Vision is “blurred”, the risk of an accident is increasing. What must we do?
A few months ago advice would have been relevant only to change, but not to breed bodyagi. Well, you can save on the budget, especially when it comes to security! Today, however, this approach is irrelevant, for two reasons at once. First, prices for both the glass itself and for installing it have risen sharply. And secondly, the search for glass for many car models, especially if we are not talking about the mass market, has become much more complicated. They are not in warehouses or on points. Rotate as you wish.
If there is a problem, there will be a solution. That is the tormented motto of the Russian people. Small businesses, of course, immediately responded to the needs of the population: “professional glass polishing with imported compositions” is on every bulletin board. Long, expensive, not always effective. But on the other hand, you regularly hear the slogan, which probably 100% justifies the failure: yes, it happens sometimes, bad luck. However, you still have to go to the cashier and pay for “bad luck”.
To avoid embarrassment and unnecessary costs, you can do the work yourself: who does it better than the owner? Yes, and there will be no complaints here, trust me. It is not the custom that we blame ourselves. In general, having borrowed a polishing machine and going to the dacha, we come to a logical question: how to polish something? A bottle of “imported compound” isn’t cheap, and the Indian government’s native paste will turn the glass of a modern passenger car into a strainer. You need a softer one. Let’s say right away that toothpaste, as well as powder, does not fully cope with the task.
Soda will help. Yes, yes, the same one that has been under the sink since time immemorial. We will, of course, “wet” polish, therefore, after washing the windshield, we immediately sprinkle the damaged areas with white powder and start polishing square by square. Or rather, circle after circle. This process is not very fast, contraindicated in the heat of the day, but extremely meditative on a languid Saturday night.
Two hours of work with breaks, and the windshield shines like crystal. With a certain skill, even an extremely shabby “plywood” can be restored to a decent state. There is only one rule: do not get carried away and check the result more often, wash the traces of your work from the glass.
