Auto Glass Facts
Greenwood Glass Co. is a member of
the PPG PROSTARS network. The following are some facts about
installation of auto-glass:
 |
The
windshield is a critical part of a vehicle's safety
system. In
an accident, the windshield enables the passenger
airbag to function properly and minimize roof
collapse. Your vehicle's continued safe
performance depends on a proper installation.
This involves 20 or more steps and can take from 40
minutes to over 2 hours.

We
realize that a policyholder may choose or select a
specific shop for service.
Policyholder choice will
always be honored.
|
 |
Not
all auto replacement glass is the same.
Original Equipment
Manufacturers (OEM), like PPG, make replacement auto
glass parts following the same quality procedures used
to make glass for car manufacturers. So the
glass fits precisely in the opening, reducing the
possibility of a poor quality installation. PPG
PROSTARS shops install these parts, which have earned
the Good Housekeeping Seal.
|
 |
Windshield replacement requires skill and extensive
hands-on experience to have the ability to install the
many thousands of different parts.
PPG PROSTARS shops have
access to one of the most comprehensive mentor-based
training programs in the industry. They also
have access to PROTips -- an on-line database of best
installation practices for new vehicles and difficult
to install parts.

A
windshield is secured into a vehicle with
sophisticated adhesive systems.
Always ensure the
technician who worked on your vehicle clearly defines
the "safe-drive away time." These times may vary
depending on the adhesive system used and the
manufacturer's recommended curing or drying time.
|
 |
Weather dictates when a technician can perform repair
or replacement work outdoors.
While we always try to
make any service work convenient for our customers, we
will advise you when indoor work is necessary to
adhere to all safe windshield installation and repair
practices. When inclement weather prohibits us
from working outdoors, we always offer our customers
the option of dry, comfortable, in-shop service. |
