The patented CM Racing Products/Racing Optics WindshieldStack is a complex optical device, having all the characteristics found in a camera lens or telescope. Racing Optics WindshieldStack starts by using individual sheets that are made from the highest quality optical grade polyester film, that are then factory laminated preventing distortion and insuring the clearest possible view for the driver. Each of the layers on the tearoff laminates are 4 mils thick and are hard-coated to provide scratch resistance.
The Racing Optics WindshieldStack laminate is also used to protect the windshield from rock strikes and other abrasive materials that could damage the windshield. Offered in 2 layer online, available in 4 layer by special request.
Installation Instructions:
Required Tools:
Spray Bottle
Squeegee
Knife (to trim if necessary - recommend Olfa stainless steel)
Dawn Dishwashing Liquid
Water
The ideal installation environment for the WindshieldStack laminate is indoors or in a sheltered environment.
Airborne dust in a shop should not be a problem if the laminate is applied on the windshield immediately after the
windshield has been thoroughly cleaned. The windshield should not be pitted or nicked. This will cause install
issues.
If an outdoor installation is absolutely necessary, it should be done with the windshield facing away from direct
sunlight, preferably in a shaded area when there is little or no breeze that could contaminate the installation with
blowing sand or other potential contaminants.
The race car should sit in the shaded area or inside for 1 hour after installation to insure that there has been sufficient time for the WindshieldStack to adhere properly to the windshield.
1. Prior to installing the WindshieldStack, thoroughly clean the windshield with a good cleaner (windex or better)
using a good cleaning towel that will not leave lint or residue on the surface of the windshield. Make sure that
you clean the entire windshield and wipe it down thoroughly.
2. To make the application add a squirt of Dawn dish washing liquid into your spray bottle, and then fill it with clean
water. The amount of dish washing liquid used is a matter of personal preference. It is better to add too much
rather than too little when mixing your application solution. (We recommend 3ccs of soap to 32 ounces of water)
3. Prior to installation, use the mixture to wet and squeegee the windshield, removing any lint and/or dust.
4, Lay the laminate on the windshield to verify fit.
5. Peel the release liner off the back of the WindshieldStack you are preparing to install. Thoroughly wet the
base layer of the laminate as you remove the release liner with the application solution described above. (The
release liner is marked with the words Release Liner, and also indicates the number of layers on the laminate. Do
not wet the windshield again as this will attract dirt.
6. Place the WindshieldStack on the windshield.
7. Squeegee the installation solution out from under the laminate working in an up and down motion from the
center out using firm pressure left and right. Repeat this step as many times as necessary to insure that the
solution is totally dissipated from under the WindshieldStack.
8 . Allow the WindshieldStack to cure for one hour in a shaded environment to complete the installation. The
vehicle may now be driven.
9. The edge of multiple layer laminates can now be trimmed back to expose each layer in a stair step pattern so
that tape can be applied that will facilitate removal of each layer as may be required during a race. To remove a
layer simple peel up the edge of the layer that you wish to remove and pull the piece from the vehicle.
Cleaning Procedures:
1. The WindshieldStack can be cleaned with any nonabrasive cleaning solution such as water or window
cleaner with no adverse effects.
2. Hard to remove spots caused by tar or bugs can be carefully removed with a light gauge steel wool.
3. Once a layer becomes obscured due to non-removable contaminants or excessive scratches, it can be removed
by following the procedures listed below.
Operational Procedures
1. Do not pull a layer off the WindshieldStack for 24 hours following installation.
2. Once a layer can no longer be cleaned using the procedures outlined above, the top layer should be pulled off
the laminate.
3. To remove a layer lift up the top tab, and pull the top layer towards the center of the windshield. The pull should
be made in a steady and deliberate fashion. Do not stop the pull until the layer is completely removed.
4. When the bottom layer is reached, the car should be scheduled for installation of a new WindshieldStack
laminate as may be required.
