Carbon Steel Windshield Protection

Protection for the most important point of view

Carbon Steel is a professionally applied, multi-step windshield protection system that combines advanced water repellency with carbon-nanotube technology for your vehicle's front windshield. Ask your Feldmann product specialist how it protects the glass you look through every day.

What Carbon Steel Does

Better wet-weather visibility

The water-repellent treatment helps rain, dirt, grime, and small insects bead and slide off the glass instead of sticking, which aids visibility when you need it most.

Reduced glare

According to ECP, treated glass reduces glare and aids driver visibility by more than 30% on average.

Increased break strength

In ECP testing performed to ASTM C 1499, treated glass showed more than a 32% increase in break strength.

Carbon-nanotube technology

ECP describes the carbon nanotube as a molecule with a tensile strength approximately 100 times greater than steel, used to help the glass resist impact and pressure from everyday driving.

Chip and crack repair

The program includes repair of minor chips and cracks to the front windshield. A network provider meets you at a convenient location to complete the repair.

Every vehicle qualifies

Per ECP, all new, pre-driven, and lease vehicles qualify for Carbon Steel windshield protection.

Protection you cannot see

Carbon Steel fills the microscopic peaks, valleys, and pores in the glass surface, then caps and seals that bonding layer for a smoother, clearer finish.

The result is glass that helps protect against microscopic scratches and everyday environmental contaminants.

Treatment Steps

1

Carbon Nanotube windshield appearance protection fills the microscopic peaks and valleys of the glass surface.

2

The bonding substrate is capped and sealed to enhance surface smoothness. The result is glass that is smoother and clearer.
