Esprit’s windscreen repair kit
If you’re supplying professional-grade repair equipment, safety and ease of use are key selling points. Esprit’s windscreen repair kit has been developed to ensure quality repairs and reduce risk to both the technician and the vehicle. Understanding and communicating these features to trade customers is an important part of supporting safe and effective repair work.
Although the Esprit resin is non-toxic, it can occasionally cause mild skin irritation or allergic reactions in sensitive users. To mitigate this, the use of protective gloves or a barrier cream is recommended during application – you may already supply the standard disposable gloves or light-duty options that are suitable!
Eye protection is also a vital component of the kit’s safety protocol. While the Esprit curing lamp emits UVA light – within a safer range than UVB or UVC – long-term exposure still warrants protection. To support this, every Esprit kit includes UV resistant safety glasses, specifically selected from Bolle. Technicians should be encouraged to wear these throughout the repair process, not only during curing, but also when drilling or using tools where splashes or debris may be present. For users with prescription glasses, protective over-glasses are also supplied to ensure full compliance without compromise.
Trip hazards and workspace safety
Trailing wires have long been a common cause of trip hazards in busy workshops. To address this, Esprit now offers a rechargeable cordless curing lamp. This eliminates the need for mains cabling, reducing both trip risk and setup time. The cordless lamp has been engineered to fit into the existing Esprit lamp case, maintaining compatibility with current kit layouts and providing seamless integration for existing users.
The battery-powered unit is ideal for mobile repair businesses or technicians working off-site. A single charge supports a full day’s repair schedule, typically 25 to 30 uses. For customers still using the standard wired lamp, Esprit also supplies handheld battery packs that allow for off-grid operation while keeping cables out of harm’s way. These packs use the standard Esprit charging cable, simplifying inventory.
