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 to start this service I will offer, a hair drier is not fit for me. I suppose 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.

Below is a video on how Delta Kits uses the moisture evaporator.
***Note the intense heat from the moisture evaporator will break down hydrophobic coatings and waxes too.
