Alfredo's Auto Glass in Corona,CA safe windshield replacement on BMW 535i 2012 using WRD SPIDER 002S to remove the windshield

[@Japplesnap]

This is the guy that I want doing my windshield replacement.

[@bridgerlee8879]

Bro, we need more people like you. You take so many precautions to ensure a professional finish with no scratches on the car or dash. Thank you for taking pride in your work, most windshield replacement companies just rush the process and take no precautions. Keep doing what you're doing man. 10/10

[@AlfredosAutoGlassRepairCorona]

vBOG thank you 🙏

[@robertpresti7775]

We have to do this. If we don't prime minor scratches it will rust. We have to take this very seriously because if you're in an accident your windshield supports your air bag, keeps you in the car in a roll over and keep you from getting crushed by the roof in a rollover. Your windshield plays a part in structural integrity of your car.

I've been in the Auto Glass business since 1990. You are one of the extremely rare individuals who take the effort to do all the little things correctly. Vehicle protection, pinchweld cleanliness, primer, correct glue and good looking glue bead, gloves and suction cups so no contamination to pinchweld or glass grit. I've seen over a thousand other techs work and it still amazes me how many do not do the job correctly at all. Thank you for reaffirming me there are still guys out there like myself who do it correctly. One small bit of advice. When the body putty/bondo/filler gets exposed at body joints under the original glue bed I like to lay a small bead of urethane over that joint and smooth over entire joint so no water can work its way in that isn't covered by new glue bead.

[@mzzzzz2179]

Can you do my vehicle

[@bigelile07]

So, 15 years in the "Auto Glass business" and you are calling urethane adhesive/sealant "glue"?

[@DenDemp223]

smoke14 I’m confused by the point of your comment but I’ll respond anyway. First- 1990 was 30 years ago not 15 If you do the simple math. Second- Yes I called it glue. Urethane, adhesive, glue, are common words used everyday.in auto glass that I’ve heard and used over the last 3 decades and by thousands of techs in several states. While I’ve primarily done autoglass my whole career, I’ve also done for many years and still do on occasion commercial/ residential. Adhesive, glazing compound and glue are several terms used there regularly as well. Again, I called it glue in casual conversation. If I was writing a tech article or bulletin, which I have written several, I would specifically use the term urethane.

[@bigelile07]

@@DenDemp223 I was an auto glass tech for 25 years and I never heard anyone call it glue. But if you and "thousands of techs in several states" wanna call it glue, whatever.

[@twang]

​@@bigelile07 You've never heard anyone call it glue? Alfredo calls it glue multiple times when applying the primer in this video, but you've NEVER heard ANYONE call it glue. That means you're just digging through KZbin comments to be annoying, because you obviously didn't watch this video. There's plenty of hobbies out there brother. You don't have to be the old salty retired auto glass tech trying to flex on people on the internet.

[@Devo1987]

this guy sure does love his work and takes great pride in it Rock On Smile More :-)

[@MoparGuy1625]

I don’t even have a BMW nor need a new windshield. I love your videos. Super professional

[@AlfredosAutoGlassRepairCorona]

MOPARGuy thank you very much Sir. I work on every vehicle as if it was my own. Thank you for taking the time to watch my video. God bless

[@mikeoxbig111]

Alfredo I did this job for 52 years just recently retired. 20 years in the shop and 32 on the road as a mobile installer. I owned the business with my brother and loved my work. You are the first guy I have seen do the job as I did. Great job and I would have hired you in a minute after riding with you one day. Your truck is neat and clean and fully stocked and your work impeccable. Keep doing a great job.

[@AlfredosAutoGlassRepairCorona]

Thank you for your meaningful words. This is a very enjoyable trade and I enjoy doing it every day! It’s nice to know there are other technicians out there with ethics in our trade. Cheers 🍻

[@stjackso17]

I think I finally understand why some people down vote videos: They just cant stand to see someone who is so good at what they do. It makes them sick to their stomachs! Nice job and I learned a lot.

[@truthrevealed9293]

Who ever gave 41 thumbs down is a hater...this guy is totally a pro watch and learn. Hopefully he has a school teaching his trade. Great job brother great job!!

[@service8]

The quality is that of a true professional. Well played Afredo, a pleasure to watch you work.

[@zglassinc.8521]

Alfredo, This is Rich with ZGLASS & ZG3 Systems. I have watched a lot of Videos in my 40 years in this crazy Auto Glass Business, but I have never seen anyone do an installation this well. I am very impressed! The thing that is most impressive is the care you take to do the job right. I thought I was a fairly good technician but after watching your video you are without question one of the best technicians I have ever watched. I met you at the Glass Show in Reno and even though I thought the competition was not a true representation of the work that is actually done in the field, I have to say in your case, the work you do appears to be the same in the field or in the competition. It is rare to see the same quality service performed on a daily basis that you would see in a competition. I am from Illinois, and after watching your video, I think I might just drive to California if I ever need my own personal windshield installed. Very impressive. I am glad you are not my competitor, you would be hard to beat! In fact I don't think you could be beat. I think the best I could hope for is a tie!!! Awesome job. You make me proud to be an Auto Glass Technician! --- Rich

[@AlfredosAutoGlassRepairCorona]

It was very nice meeting you at the auto glass competition, I got to say I'm impressed myself with the setting tool you invented. Thank so very much for your comments I love what I do every day and it's true what I do in the competition is the same thing I do every day.

[@MARTINLOCZ]

Ive had a few windshields replaced before and Alfredos work ethic is apparent most guys are in a hurry trying to get slap the windshield on ive had guys try and leave dirt without wiping the grime off before placing the windshield on good to know someone has integrity in there work

[@baileywhanau]

Great to see a perfectionist & ethical tradesman who's very good at what he does. Well done Alfredo !

When it comes to Auto Glass videos this is the most professional guy to watch

[@TheTheaterdreamer]

Man I gotta say... I'm extremely OCD. So I rejoiced seeing a proper professional at work. Good quality tools, clean, methodic, careful, fast... Very very good job

[@briancreevey]

Its good to see an installer put the poly on the body and not the glass. you really are an inspiration. Im in the industry 10 years and i have seen so many poor/shoddy/dangerous repalcements.

[@ChrisHernandezAutoGlass]

Just finished replacing a 2011 BMW 535i today at our auto glass shop. Thank you for putting together such a Great video. It helped a bunch.

Such amazing work, very skilled and what I like the most is attention to detail, hard to find people like you

[@scottrech2889]

I've been doing this for 25 years plus and the only step extra that I do is after the original ureathane is removed I clean the pinchweld with glass cleaner and a lint free towel and then I prime any bare metal spots. the reason I do this is to make absolute sure there is no dirt and debris before I prime. not many people in our profession take these steps to do a proper installation , Great Work ethic ! Advanced Auto Glass - Nebraska

[@AlecWade84]

Agrss recommends clean the pichweld before trimming the old urethane back. Nothing is more clean than a freshly trimmed bead. If u wipe over the trimmed urethane, u can actually make it less clean.

[@georgeanddaddecker7563]

This guy is gifted. Really impressive how he cut the extra urethane.

[@psb2450]

Super ! Nice to see a professional who is great at what he does. Very few have the ethics to execute with such care.

[@dumbluck8610]

Alfredo is a professional. does it better then anyone ive watched

[@TubalFusion]

I'm watching in Nov 2021 and I love this man's professionalism, perfectionism, ethics and his love of what he does. If he were in my part of the country, I'd definitely patronize his business and recommend him to others. I'm in need of a replacement and hope I'm blessed to find an installer as awesome as Alfredo.

Hey Alfredo - you could be a surgeon - when i need a new hip i will call you - great job, I stumbled in this video by accident and enjoyed watching the process - very interesting thanks!

Keep it up ! Hope you are doing great.

[@AlfredosAutoGlassRepairCorona]

Thank you. I really love what I do, my goal on every single replacement is to replicate the factory original install. Thanks God doing very well.

[@josesmatos33]

Alfredo, I just checked out your video to get an idea of what to expect as my 2014 Audi A4 is scheduled for a windshield replacement next week by a national chain company per my insurance and I only hope that the guy who works on it is 80% as detailed and meticulous as you are. Too bad you're not in NJ. Great video and an even better install. Kudos to you sir.

[@lifewithnacho7620]

He deserves a thumbs up all the way I've been doing it for 18 years everybody does it different there are several ways to get it done some ways are better than others there is not a specific way to get it done when ordering a windshield stand there and watch the tech if he knows what he's doing he should be comfortable letting you watch remember it's your vehicle you have the right to watch if he is confident to work in front of you then obviously is the one you want working on your vehicle

[@felixnunez623]

within the first 3 minutes already knew that this man loves what he does. great job! I'm getting my windshied replaced this week and i better get the same type of care and service lol whoever has to replace my windshield is going to get watched like a hawk thanks to alfredo! lmfao

[@Chris-hd3yc]

Good job man, I own a repair shop and I would love to see this quality of work from the guys that come here. Unfortunately it's up to the customer who they want to hire and they always go with the cheapest and they get what they pay for, cut urethane, remove broken window, no prime, run bead of urethane, stick in window, add 2 pieces of yellow tape. That's what $150 gets you. This guy is a $300-$400 replacement because it has to be with all that overhead and time.

One time set yes sir! Great job man 👍🏼

[@ronaldcharlton9803]

Good professional job Alfredo, demonstrated some excellent skills. My only concern would be the risk of injury to your back when you are " laying on" the new glass. During my time in the business, I saw many long served fitters who ended up with back problems because of that manoeuvre.

[@TheSevenSoulsofMan]

It's cool seeing the different ways evey place or company does these installs, where I work we do as much of the bead on the glass instead of the car, the most we'll do is the bottom quarter of the body.

[@steveadkins01]

Great job!! Only one mistake, factory clip along the passenger pinch weld #4 from top, seems to be missing. Its possible a previous installer broke it. I have seen this before so no big deal. My only problem is that you didn't replace it with a new one. I carry this clip with me at all times and a lot of others as well because I know it could break or the last guy didnt replace the broken or missing clip. Having said that I still think you are a very good installer! I've installed glass for many years and not seen the professionalism that you have. Also the guts to video yourself installing. Truth is as an installer myself, I have learned by watching your video. Thanks buddy, keep up the good work!
