The first time we demonstrated early wire extraction tools to customers, it was a disaster. There was a lot of difficulty feeding the wire, then it kept snapping and our demonstrator was terribly embarrassed. Almost no one was sold on the idea. Years later, the products improved and now almost everyone's using them.
I save windshields with old-school methods of cold knives and extractor. To each their own it usually only takes me five minutes to take a Windshield out. I don’t think I’ll ever change.
You are the one doing extra work😂you think I care if you break your back taking a windshield off. I'll use the easier and safer method to protect the customer's car and windshield, while looking like I have fancy tools and hard to use. That will raise my price. You gotta learn, that's why a lot of places never scale.
Great tutorial my friend. I own a 1994 Pontiac Trans am that I'm restoring. I need to take out the front windshield. It's original never been taking out before.. so if I could get some input on the Best way to remove my front windshield without breaking it that would be great. Thanks. .
@@autoglassdirect9071 thanks for the info. I agree I've never taken a windshield out before. I'm restoring my 94 trans am by myself and I'm prepping it for a new complete paint job that's why I'm removing the front windshield. I'll get in touch with the glass company..
The whole video you kept saying you were going to give your honest opinion but you never gave one also you didn't say how much the tool cost both things would have been nice to hear!!
Went to harbor freight,bought the wire kit,bought a small sawzall,and bought. The cold knife,hundred bucks of junk,nothing worked,small sawzall would kind of work but not really,wire to slow,and cold knife zero.ended up kicking it out,😭😭😭
This tool will not save all the windshields Depense on the vehicle and how tall the urethane is Most of wv and audi windshields eill brake trying to save it with bat
That’s a big negative. There is different fiber line strength and thickness. Thinner the line less possibilities of breaking. When you know what your doing it’s a breeze. This tool is for professionals not rookies.
I thought you said this was going to be an instructional video, you didn't show shit, all I learned was that you have a slick little winch. How do you get the cord through the window, nothing on how to set up the string. go bust some more clips.
NO explanation as to where you start or why, what the first few moments and movements are basically just watching you use a drill. More explanation please.

What about all the tool marks you leave all over the hidden body work creating so much extra work to prime and prep those areas?

I suggest calling professional to remove the windshield. The process is not for someone with no experience.

Is it like weedeater line or fish line or what kind of material is it
fiber line designed for windshield removal
What’s the name of that tool

Can you reuse the line

You could have saved the top locators by pulling the chord around them when you get close.
oops.... should have watched further.......

It’s not about the tools, it’s about who’s holding them.
