1. Clean area of damage
   1. 1.1. Use a dry cloth (without any window cleaner) to clean the windscreen around the area of damage, but do not wipe across the area of impact itself.
   2. 1.2. Remove loose splinters of glass out of the chipped area using the hard metal stylus, but do not enlarge the impact crater unnecessarily. → Exposing stone chip 

      Please note:  The more glass that is missing from the chipped surface, the more obvious the blemish after repairs.

3. Drill out hole

   If necessary, use a drill to mill glass splinters and dirt out of the impact hole to a depth of approx. 1 mm.

   Please note:  Always hold the drill firmly with both hands! This is the only way to ensure the drill is positioned securely.
