Summer is a great time of year to be a windshield repair technician. No rain or snow to contend with, and plenty of sunny hours to get out there and make some money. However, many technicians are not considering the impact direct sunlight and high glass temperatures can have on the repair process. Secondly, if not taken into consideration, direct sunlight and high heat can account for many of the difficulties that technicians run into on a day-to-day basis.
Many technicians perform repairs in direct sunlight and are completely unaware that they are making things more difficult and causing many preventable challenges for themselves. In fact, the sun (UV) can cause premature curing, a breakdown of the PVB (Polyvinyl butyral) laminate, and crack outs. When repairing damage with legs radiating from the center, it is quite common for the resin to cure before it reaches the tips of the legs if open to UV light sources. Also, if you find that you are having trouble getting resin to the very ends of your star break legs and the repair is exposed to UV. Premature curing is likely the culprit.
Have a shop, make sure to use it. If not, make sure you move the vehicle to the shade. Also, if you must do repairs in direct sunlight use a UV shield or Bubble Dome to protect your work.

Keeps the sun off while working on repairs.
Best UV shield bar none. I have 3 other ‘shields’ from several competitors. The others are essentially the same, very thin (.2mm) and flimsy. I work in Wichita, and it’s windy. The Delta Kits shield is 10 TIMES thicker @ 2.0mm. It also has top side ‘grabs’ all to make my work easier.
Thank you.
