Windshield Replacement Commercials

We were watching a football game on TV recently and an advertisement came on for a competing auto glass replacement firm. In the few seconds the commercial was on, we were astonished to see a funny replacement technique being used. The installer didn’t use suction cups to hold the windshield as it was slid into place! He did have gloves on, something very important as the oils from your hands can impact the curing and the seal of the urethane, but he was holding the new windshield by the bottom as he slid it into place. This means that the gloves would have been right in the urethane. What a mess that would be! If you need your windshield or other auto glass replaced, you…

Removing the Wipers During a Windshield Replacement

Ever watch them replace the windshield on your car? If you haven’t, the next time you need a new windshield, watch what happens. If the repairman is doing his job correctly, you’ll see him remove the windshield wipers and cowl, not just push them back out of the way. This is incredibly important in order to get the proper seal. If the wipers are left in place, the installer has to jam the windshield in at an angle, something that might impact fit, and impede a safe install. If you need your windshield or other auto glass replaced, you can be sure that with Titan you’re getting the absolute best quality work. Titan Auto Glass is located in Woburn MA and we serve all of…

Cleaning Your Car’s Windshield

Cleaning Your Car’s Windshield

Keeping your windshield clean and clear is important. Dirty windshields hamper your visibility and could lead to accidents. Keep the wiper fluid topped off so you don’t run out. There’s nothing worse than an empty wiper fluid tank. Also, there are two sides to every story, and two sides to every window. While you may clean the outside of the windows every time you gas up, or run the car through the carwash, the insides need cleaning too. Be careful with the kind of glass cleaner you choose. Most glass cleaner contains ammonia which can be unpleasant, if not dangerous in the small enclosed area of a car. Ammonia also isn’t good for certain kinds of plastics, vinyl, rubber or leather used in the interior…

Six Reasons Why We Love Working with Auto Body Shops and Dealerships

Like most independent auto glass replacement companies, we love working with auto body shops and dealerships. Why, you ask? Lots of reasons! 1.) You understand the finer points of windshield replacement and appreciate a job well done. 2.) We know right where you will be. (You stay in one place and so does the target vehicle.) 3.) You usually have those nice, warm and snug buildings where we can complete our work out of the wind, rain and snow! 4.) You appreciate that we purchase top quality materials – both the windshields and the urethane — and understand why our services might cost a little more than the big auto glass company that uses second quality materials 5.) You have lots of cars to work on…

Why Contact a Local Company for Your Windshield Replacement

Why Contact a Local Company for Your Windshield Replacement

Last month, Governor Charlie Baker asked Massachusetts residents to patronize local businesses and sought to turn Valentine’s Day into Valentine’s Week to help local retailers, restaurants, and other firms recover some of the business lost to the snow. If you need a windshield replacement, consider calling a local firm. (Even if it isn’t Titan.) While you would think that automotive glass replacement is impervious to the weather, local glass shops have also taken a hit. People have been staying home with all the bad weather and the number of replacement calls has dropped significantly. And, if we don’t work, we don’t get paid. Support your local businesses. If you need your windshield or other auto glass replaced, you can be sure that with Titan you’re…
