After a repair, the crack may still be visible. This causes your eyes to focus on the crack (3 feet or less, in front of you) and not 100 feet ahead of you further down the road. When there is a problem within your field of vision, your eyes are forced to constantly shift from near to far causing eyestrain, headaches, and fatigue.

Ace Auto Glass has 9 locations where you can securely store your vehicle until it can be serviced. If your door, side or tailgate glass is broken, and you must cover it, please do not put the duct or mailing tape on the painted portion of your car. It does not take very long before the adhesive in the tape eats away at your paint, and becomes very sticky and hard to remove safely. At most, place the tape only on the chrome or rubber molding along the edges of the glass.

Some customers are surprised that the repaired chip or nick is not invisible. Depending on the size of the repair, customers may be able to see where the chip was filled in with resin. Unlike as depicted in some commercials, it is rare for the repaired area to completely “disappear.” Rather, the resin helps prevent the chip from getting larger and turning into a crack and maybe a temporary fix. Some repaired chips may never get larger, but some will.
