If my car windshield has a crack in it will going through a power car wash cause more damage?

It could if it's cold outside, and when the hot water hits the windshield. Otherwise, it shouldn't hurt it.If my car windshield has a crack in it will going through a power car wash cause more damage?
Probaly not! At least not unless it is going to ';run all over the place'; anyway! At worst, it might only make the inevitable happen faster!





Now, if you had a very small diamond drill,and some kerosene (for cooling the drill), you could drill a very small ';stop'; hole below the crack,and it will stop at the hole! (This is how cracks are stopped in plexiglass)! After the hole is ';stop drilled' then it is meticulously cleaned out, and a ';windshield repair'; kit that is filler to stop ';bullseye'; holes from expanding and ';repair glass'; could be used to fill the hole, then the repair would hardly be noticeable.





There are a few people around who can do this, - they advertise that they repair ';cracked glass';. Their process uses a sort of ';high pressure'; connection to push epoxy liquid up inside crack and back from damage some distance,- sometimes the crack can be pretty effectively eliminated form your vision! But this shoud be done before the windshield gets wet, as water can get down in there, and can't get back out! Cover the crack with clear tape asap, - till you can get to somebody and see if they can fix it! All I can say is that it will be cheaper than a new windshield,-but may be visable in some places!
