| Description of the problem | Both in motion/stationary. Windshield and rt. Front door glass show signs of delimitation as seen by local glass repair and tinting companies. Both believe the visual impairment will become worse as the polyvinylbutarete glue sections become connected in a growing "spider web" array across the entire glass. Any sunlight at a 30 degree angle to south travel causes confusion as the photons hit the glue and reflect the light. Local glass tech calls these "stars". |
