Damage Types
Category One Glass Damage
Circular imprints left by suction cups during manufacturing or installation. Often mild but visible, these marks are quickly removable with the right tools.
A whitish discoloration caused by thermal exposure, often seen in glass manufacturing or industrial environments. Requires specialized polishing techniques.
Mineral buildup from prolonged exposure to water, leaving stubborn spots and stains. Perfectly addressed through abrasion and polishing.
Advanced mineral damage resulting in permanent stains. Restoration involves careful abrasion to restore clarity.
Category Two Glass Damage
Severe damage caused by minerals bonding to the glass surface over time, leading to etching. Requires aggressive restoration techniques.
Micro-scratches or pitting from environmental exposure or improper cleaning. Restoration focuses on smoothing the glass surface.
Swirling scratches or haze left by improper cleaning tools like steel wool. A straightforward restoration process can bring back clarity.
Transfer marks from metal on glass contact, common in manufacturing. Restoring these requires grinding and polishing.
Scuffing or scratches caused by two glass surfaces rubbing together, typically during transportation or installation.
Category Three Glass Damage
Damage from improper use of razor blades during cleaning. Restoration focuses on smoothing the scratches without compromising glass integrity.
Chips or scratches caused by debris from construction or landscaping. Requires targeted restoration for effective results.
Surface-level acid etching used in vandalism. A detailed restoration process can eliminate shallow marks.
Deeper, more aggressive acid etching that penetrates the glass surface. Advanced techniques restore clarity.
Surface scratches caused by vandalism. Restoration involves mild abrasion and polishing.
Category Four Glass Damage
Deep scratches requiring more intensive abrasion and precise restoration techniques.
Deeper vandalism scratches, often deliberate and aggressive, needing advanced tools and techniques.
Marks caused by industrial grinding debris embedding into glass surfaces. Removal requires specific abrasive methods.
Pitted or frosted areas caused by sandblasting or other abrasive media. Restoration focuses on controlled abrasion and polishing.
Burn marks and spatter from welding, often deeply embedded. Specialized techniques restore clarity and remove discoloration.
Small chips or divots in the surface, often requiring targeted repair to avoid further damage.
