Ultra Bond's Crack Master Windshield Repair Tools are for the professional windshield repair technicians. Curing the repair is not to be taken lightly. It only takes 2 minutes to do it right with sunlight or a low intensity 365 nm UV fluorescent light or a filtered LED. DO NOT USE OTHER LED CURING LIGHTS. LEDs do not cure at a uniform rate which can cause tension and weak spots in the cured resin.
We have made a custom LED Curing light that first lights up a special polymeric cover which then emits uniform UV Energy through the other side of the cover. The cover also reduces the intensity while emitting uniform UV Energy through the cover. This is the ONLY LED Curing light currently on the market that can be used for curing windshield repairs.
LED lights age over time and progressively get dimmer until they stop working altogether. This is called “lumen degradation” or “LED degradation” and each bulb is giving off a different intensity and degrades at different rate. That is why it has to first light up and go through another surface in order to give out uniform UV energy and there can be NO space in-between LED bulbs.
Our Inside Curing Light is the first inside curing light ever made. It is mounted on the inside of the windshield to cure under pressure and penetrates through the PVB - turning the PVB into the curing source. Having the PVB being the curing source has created a tight bond where the glass of the legs, cracks and bullseye meet the PVB. This has created a significant visual improvement. Star-Breaks virtually disappear. Strength tests also show an increase in the mechanical strength of the repairs also. Average repair time is 3 minutes.
Ultra Bond repairs restore 100% strength as a four-part system of: (1) resin, (2) custom repair tool, (3) methods (Flex and Release, cure under pressure) and (4) cure source, time and intensity. Altering any part of the Ultra Bond system can reduce the strength of the repair.
A 365 nm UV Light Meter is an invaluable tool to have and generally ranges from $130-$200 . You can check and measure sunlight and your curing lights at any time.
