What happens here

Using the foaming glass cleaner and lint-free paper towels, thoroughly clean a generous area (approximately 8 to 10 inches) around the windshield chip. This removes dirt, grime, and any other contaminants that could interfere with the adhesive's bond. After cleaning, use the compressed air duster to carefully blow out any tiny glass shards or loose debris from inside the chip itself. Blow from multiple angles to ensure all particles are dislodged. Ensure the cleaned area is completely dry, allowing sunlight to aid in drying if available.

Goal: Ensure the repair area is free of debris and completely dry.
