Windscreens are structurally designed to support damage. Having two layers of glass with a third layer of surrounding automotive safety glass, these windscreens are designed with high safety features. Any kind of damage in a car windscreen can be harmful to both the driver and the passenger, so it is very necessary to get it repaired or replaced on time, before any mishappening.
There are four main things- the type of break, the size, the depth and the location of the damage that need to be considered whether your car windscreen needs to be replaced or repaired.
Bullseye: A bullseye crack usually appears as a dark-coloured circle with an impact hole in the middle. These are fairly easy to repair.
Half Moon: These are the half bullseye. The shape is characterised by a darker colour and an impact hole. Half-moon breaks are easy to repair. So you don’t need to spend your money in replacing.
Star Break: Like a star burst, there are small cracks that lead away from the centre of the impact. This kind of damage needs to be replaced soon as it can result in many long cracks across the glass.
Stress Crack: Generally, these types of cracks form from factors like sudden or dramatic temperature variations. These cracks are almost always straight and can be repaired easily.
Combination Break: This windscreen damage is a mix of bullseye and star breaks resulting in extensive damage, often with missing chunks of glass. The damage is difficult to repair, so need to be replaced soon.
