Dots On The Windshield Are Meant To Be There
Ever noticed that there is a black band running along the edge of windshields that is usually followed by a series of small dots? Well, this is known as the “frit” of a windshield which is baked-in ceramic paint that has a variety of functions. First and foremost, it protects the sealant from ultraviolet rays which keep the glass in place.
It also helps to conceal the dirt that builds on the edge of the glass. The dots, on the other hand, are used to transition from the black frit to the transparent glass, which also helps with temperature distribution.
