how do we replace your windshield?
Cali Auto Glass has systems and best practices in place to ensure that your vehicle's windshield is safely and securely installed.
01
protection and Preparation
Cover the hood and dashboard with dash covers and
remove existing windshield trim and weather stripping.
02
cleaning & adhesives
Thoroughly clean the pinchweld area and apply a bead of specialized urethane adhesive along the pinchweld.
03
windshield installation
Install the windshield, ensuring proper alignment, and press it firmly into place. Allow the urethane adhesive to cure as per the required drive-away time.
04
quality
inspection
Perform a thorough inspection to verify alignment, seal integrity, and gaps around the windshield.
keep in mind:
Most front windshield replacements take around 90 minutes, but the curing time of the adhesive is crucial, so you should not drive immediately after installation.
Follow your technician's specific instructions about when it's safe to drive your car after the installation. Their guidance ensures a secure installation and avoids issues.
Avoid washing your car for at least 24 hours after installation. Pure water or rain is fine, but it's important to avoid pressure and chemicals that could interfere with the glue during this time.
If your vehicle has modern safety systems like lane assist or backup cameras, you'll need ADAS calibration after a windshield replacement. ADAS stands for Advanced Driver Assistance Systems.
