What you need to know: BS au 242 1998 & BS au 251 1994

As you would most probably expect any standard with a date of 1994 or 1998 do not represent current thinking and technology. GT Smart advocates the very best windscreen repair outcomes as demonstrated with these two windscreen repair before and after images carried out by GT Smart

The windscreen chip on this blogs page is a picture a chip which under the old standard BS au 242 1998 would not be permitted as the double break is too close together. However the "after image" shows that two repairs in close proximity cab be repaired successfully.

The BSI shop indicates that these two standards are under review.
