GMC Motorhome Digest V2 #13

[rbwesley]

Some time ago there was mention of trying to clear fogged windshield
margins by the use of a heat gun, but I haven't seen any follow-up since
unless I missed it. Has anyone tried this method and what were the
results? If anyone is planning to replace glass anyway would they be
willing to try some heating before they discard the old glass?

My glass is in great shape except for the fogging between the
laminations and I hate to pay big bucks for new glass if there is a way
to improve it without replacement. Any help out there?

Bob I was the one that posted it and got the information from my brother who
just retired from General motors. I have not tried it yet but will when I
can find a piece of glass that is not installed. I'm chicken to try it on
my coach. Brother said to take two clothes irons on low heat one on each
side of the glass.
