Why 60-90 Minute Drive-Away Time Matters

Back to all articles

When you get your windshield replaced, you can't immediately hop in and drive onto the highway. The adhesive holding the heavy glass in place needs time to cure.

The Old Standard

In the past, replacing a windshield meant leaving your car sitting in a shop bay for a full day, or overnight, waiting for standard urethane to dry. Driving too soon could cause the glass to shift over bumps, ruining the seal and compromising the vehicle's structural integrity in a crash.

The 60-90 Minute Advantage

At Town Auto Glass, we use an advanced, rapid-curing adhesive system. This specialized urethane requires only a 60 to 90 minute drive-away time.

What This Means For You

Because we offer free mobile service, the technician replaces the glass right in your driveway. By the time the replacement is finished and you wait just 60 to 90 minutes, the adhesive has cured enough for you to drive. You can confidently head to work or run errands without sacrificing safety or wasting your entire day.

Don't wait until it cracks!
