Why Professional Bus Windshield Replacement Matters

Thomas buses endure constant vibration, road debris, and rivet fatigue. A compromised windshield seal can lead to leaks, frame corrosion, and failed DOT inspections. Proper OEM-spec replacement restores structural integrity, weatherproofing, and regulatory compliance for your fleet.

OEM Assemblies & Precision Rivet Removal

We supply genuine Thomas Bus windshield assemblies and Dow Xpress™ 30 urethane. Our technicians carefully remove up to three rivets per flange, clean and prime the metal, then apply a continuous bead of adhesive—ensuring a leak-proof bond that cures onsite in under two hours.

  2. Rivet & Seal Removal: Precision cutting and extraction of corroded rivets; old sealant stripped.
  3. Frame Prep: Metal cleaned, primed, and treated for corrosion protection.
  4. Glass Pre-Check: Inspect new assembly for fit, defrost wiring, and alignment.
  5. Urethane Application: Continuous bead of Dow Xpress™ 30 per OEM specs.
  6. Placement & Alignment: Precisely seat windshield into flange to maintain seal uniformity.
  7. Curing & Certification: Allow cure, leak-test, inspect adhesion, and certify DOT compliance.
