Proud to Partner with GlasWeld — The Pacific Northwest's Best-Kept Secret in Glass Care

Why we choose GlasWeld products for our customers — and why it matters that they're made right here in the PNW.

At Hampton Auto Glass, we take every service we offer seriously — from the tools we use to the products we apply to your vehicle. That's why when it comes to glass care, chip repair, headlight restoration, and water protection, we don't just grab whatever's on the shelf. We turn to GlasWeld, a company we're proud to say is not only a leader in the industry but also a neighbor — headquartered right in Bend, Oregon, in the heart of the beautiful Pacific Northwest.

Let's take a moment to talk about where GlasWeld came from, what makes their products stand apart, and why Hampton Auto Glass is proud to have them as the backbone of several of our most popular customer services.

A Legacy Built in Bend, Oregon

GlasWeld Systems has been innovating in the glass repair and restoration industry for over 35 years. Founded in Bend, Oregon — a city known for outdoor adventure, entrepreneurial spirit, and a deep appreciation for quality craftsmanship — GlasWeld built its reputation by doing one thing exceptionally well: developing professional-grade glass care solutions that actually work.

What started as a focus on windshield chip and crack repair technology grew into a full suite of glass restoration and protection products used by professionals across the globe. Today, GlasWeld products are trusted in over 50 countries, from auto glass shops and dealerships to aviation maintenance crews and building glass contractors. Yet despite their international reach, they've never moved far from their Oregon roots — and that means something to us.

GlasWeld's commitment to research, development, and innovation has kept them at the cutting edge of the industry. Their products are engineered with precision chemistry and tested under real-world conditions. When a company has been doing this for as long as GlasWeld has, you can feel the difference the moment you use their products — and more importantly, so can your customers.

The GlasWeld Products We Use at Hampton Auto Glass

We don't use GlasWeld products because they're the most convenient option. We use them because after evaluating what's available in the market, we believe they represent the highest standard of performance and reliability for our customers. Here's a closer look at the GlasWeld lineup that powers some of our best services:

🔩

Rock Chip Repair Kit

GlasWeld's professional windshield chip repair system uses advanced resin technology to restore structural integrity and optical clarity to chips, bull's-eyes, and star breaks — often making the damage nearly invisible.

💡

Headlight Restoration Kit

Yellowed, hazy headlights are both an aesthetic problem and a safety hazard. GlasWeld's headlight restoration system cuts through oxidation and UV damage, restoring clarity and improving nighttime visibility.

ProClean Water Spot Remover

Hard water deposits and mineral etching on glass can be stubborn and unsightly. GlasWeld's ProClean is a professional-grade treatment that dissolves and removes even severe water spotting without damaging glass surfaces.

HydroGuard Water Repellent

Think of HydroGuard as the PNW driver's best friend. This premium hydrophobic glass coating bonds to the surface of your windshield, causing rain and water to bead and sheet off instantly — comparable to industry favorites like Aquapel, but with GlasWeld's professional-grade formulation.

Available Add-On

Rock Chip Repair: Small Fix, Big Difference

A rock chip might look minor, but left untreated it can spider into a full crack — especially with the temperature swings we see here in the Pacific Northwest. GlasWeld's chip repair system uses an ultra-clear, UV-cured resin that fills and bonds within the damaged area, restoring the windshield's structural strength and dramatically improving the appearance of the break.

At Hampton Auto Glass, we use GlasWeld's professional chip repair kits because the results are consistent and the chemistry is proven. Many chip repairs can be completed quickly while you wait, saving you the time and expense of a full windshield replacement. It's one of the best investments a driver can make — and GlasWeld's technology makes it possible.

Headlight Restoration: See Clearly, Drive Safely

It's easy to overlook headlight degradation — it happens gradually over years of UV exposure and road wear. But dim, yellowed headlights can reduce your nighttime visibility significantly, putting you and others at risk. GlasWeld's headlight restoration kit removes that cloudy oxidation layer and brings your lenses back to like-new clarity.

We offer this as a standalone service because we've seen the dramatic before-and-after results firsthand. Customers are often amazed at the difference — both in how their vehicle looks and how much better they can see after dark. It's an affordable service that makes a real impact on safety.

ProClean: Say Goodbye to Hard Water Spots

If you've ever parked near a sprinkler, driven through a car wash with hard water, or dealt with mineral-heavy rain (looking at you, Pacific Northwest winters), you know how stubborn water spots can be. Those white, hazy deposits etch into the glass surface over time, and standard cleaning products simply won't cut through them.

GlasWeld's ProClean water spot remover is formulated specifically for glass. It works at a chemical level to dissolve mineral deposits without scratching or etching the surface. The result is glass that looks clean, clear, and professionally treated — because it is.

HydroGuard: Protection That Lasts

Once your glass is clean and clear, the next step is protecting it. GlasWeld's HydroGuard is a professional hydrophobic treatment that we genuinely love recommending to customers. If you've ever used Aquapel or a similar rain-repellent product, you already understand the concept — water simply refuses to stick to the glass. It beads up and rolls off with the wind, keeping your view crystal clear even in heavy rain.

HydroGuard is formulated to bond strongly with glass and provide long-lasting protection. For drivers in the Pacific Northwest — where rain isn't just a season, it's a lifestyle — this kind of protection is less of a luxury and more of a necessity. We're proud to apply it right here at Hampton Auto Glass using a trusted GlasWeld product.

🌲 Pacific Northwest Proud

There's something genuinely meaningful about supporting a company that calls the same corner of the world home. GlasWeld was born in Bend, Oregon — a city surrounded by mountains, rivers, and the kind of rugged beauty that makes you want to take care of the things you own. When we use their products, we're not just choosing quality. We're choosing a company that understands the conditions our customers drive in every single day — from rainy coastal mornings to dusty high-desert highways. That shared geography means something to us, and we think it shows in the results.

Why Hampton Auto Glass Chooses GlasWeld

We could source glass care products from anywhere. There's no shortage of options. But when we evaluated what was available, GlasWeld kept rising to the top — not just for the quality of results, but for the consistency, professional-grade chemistry, and the heritage behind the brand.

For over three decades, GlasWeld has been trusted by auto glass professionals around the world. That kind of track record isn't built overnight, and it isn't maintained without constantly delivering on the promise of performance. When we apply a GlasWeld product to your vehicle, we're applying something that has been refined and proven through countless real-world applications.

And beyond the product quality — there's a pride in using something made by people who share our Pacific Northwest values: quality over shortcuts, innovation grounded in experience, and a genuine commitment to doing the job right.

At Hampton Auto Glass, that's exactly the standard we hold ourselves to every day. Partnering with GlasWeld is simply an extension of that commitment — to our craft, to our community, and most importantly, to you, our customers.
