How is auto glass constructed?

Two layers of normal glass have a layer of poly-vinyl plastic fused between them. This creates a strong middle structure that can both bend and stretch. In the event of a collision this means that the glass may shatter and crack severely, but it will maintain a solid layer between the exterior and interior in many cases. The importance of this as a safety feature cannot be overstated. Safety glass has made the modern automobile possible and has been used since the 1920's. Safety glass is used in much more than automobiles though and can be found in bullet proof glass, helmets, and many other objects that are common. Safety glass also contributes to your comfort in these ways:

• Safety glass absorbs much of the high frequency sound from outside the vehicle. This makes the cabin a much quieter area, allowing for conversation and a much less distracted driver.
• Up to 97% of all ultraviolet radiation that strikes the windshield is absorbed. This stabilizes the internal temperature of the vehicle significantly. 

What types of damage should I take to a professional?

Any damage to a windshield should be shown to a trained auto glass technician. They can often spot trouble areas that others would skip over. After any impact be sure to scan the entire windshield for damage. Sometimes cracks appear far away from where the initial impact point was.  Be aware of the following issues: 

• Chips can happen from any impact or even a heavy hail storm. These can further weaken an area and lead to cracks or breaks that cost much more to repair. Chips can be hard to see, so if one is spotted before it grows into a more serious problem, bring it to a professional fast.
• Scratches often happen from small objects or something as simple as a defective or broken windshield wiper. These may seem to just be ugly marks, but leave space for weathering to occur. Scratches can grow into cracks and need to be respected.
• Cracks are detrimental to the windshield's structural integrity. The poly-vinyl layer may be the only thing holding a cracked windshield together. These need to be brought to an auto glass shop very fast and it usually requires replacement.
