Temporary windscreen

hi Jon B1.....
I would talk to a windscreen repair man as those type of things are not needed these days, windscreens no longer "shatter" and cave in as they used to ..... i do stand to be corrected as i know i will so go and talk to a windscreen repair man or even have a look at a wreckers and see how the car screens now crack ........
Cheers
Joe

Thanks for comment Joe,
You may be right about windscreens being smashed less often these days, but I am also interested in rear window emergency replacement, and I know they do smash. So still searching for source of suitable plastic.

Gday
It would be so much easier if we new where you were..

Jon.
I have used a perspex cover on the rear screen.Had it cut to size at local plastic business & use it every time I tow the van out west.

Cheers.

Hi

I drove from Norseman to Esperance once with no windscreen. Solution - full face motorcycle helmet...though suppose that would take up too much room for a once in a blue moon occurrence. Maybe just some M/C goggles and a face mask would do in an emergency.

My experience was way back when windscreens were not laminated. As others have suggested it would be an extreme instance in which you would damage a laminated windscreen to the point you would have to remove it totally to drive.

have a look at a product called clearplex i have it on my windscreen and it works a treat if u google it u should get the info u need it may b the answer u need

Polycarbonate sheeting (thin and flexible) is available at Bunnings. Cut it with good scissors. Can take a massive impact.

I put little stick on patches on the sheeting to stop it from touching the glass. Then just tape it on.
