- Single-layer (they are also called hardened or "Stalinit". Such glass is thermal processing - quenching. First, they are gradually heated, and then cooled. Single-layer usually produce rear or side glass. In case the car enters an accident and such glass is broken, then due to heat treatment it is destroyed on small fragments with stupid edges.
- Multilayer ("triplex") - glass in which plastic film is located between the layers. Multi-layered are often produced windshields. Such autoglasses are sometimes installed as rear and side machines on some models for increasing their safety, high noise insulation. The main advantage of such glasses can be called the fact that when they get into an accident, they do not split, do not scatter in different directions, but remain on a special film.

If through the glass your sheet will have greenish or bluish Tint, then in this case, on your car installed glasses with factory tint. Thus, you need to acquire a tinted glass of a suitable shade, and not transparent.

How to determine which glass is needed?

When choosing an autoglass, it is important to take into account that, according to GOST, the light transmission of glasses in the car should be at least 75 percent - for winds - and 70% - for the front side. Only such indicators are capable of providing good visibility.
