Re: Can those simple design injectors do a good repair?
Thank you very much, Screenman. My windshield repair kits just shipped out from USA yesterday,it is a stainless steel screw style injector, I will make some practice if I can receive it successfully.I will post pictures if I meet any problems in repairing practice. I also bought a bullseye maker and a starbreak maker for my practice. By the way, "Do not forget to make them wet." Would you please let me know what does it mean, screenman? Thank you again.

Certainly, it is unlikely that every repair you get to will be dry, in fact I would say over here at least 90% are wet. Drying out is often missed by poorly trained techs, and results in extremely poor quality repairs if moisture was present. Make a damage and poor water in it, then try repairing it without drying it out and you will see what I mean. Also do not forget to get in the habit of using you U shield all the time.
Things that make a chip wet, rain, snow, morning mist, car was and windshield washers.

Yes, I have ever read an article in "Crack Wise" to comment which meathod is best to get moisture out of the windshield break. After explaining serveral ways in getting rid of moitures and the pros and cons for each method, Brent suggested to use moiture evaporator as first choice. I may have one if windshield repair is not a slow business here. I have also ever read in this forum that a guy who didn't know to make use of moiture the evaporator skillful just ruin the windshield due to excess heat on it.
Right now I prepare to have a try with a mini blowtorch to see if it works since I plan to do walk-out repair instead of doing it in a repair shop in the beginning, a hair drier is not fit for me. It should need more practice than moiture evaporator if it works as well.
What is your method to get rid of moiture in a starbreak and bullseye? That'll be great if anyone can share your effective way to get the moiture out. Thank you.
