Product Description The GT Tools 2-Inch Magnification Mirror (SKU: MIR-2) is a simple yet indispensable diagnostic and monitoring tool for professional windshield repair technicians. During a rock chip or star break repair, the technician operates the resin injector and bridge from the exterior of the vehicle. This specialized inspection mirror is designed to be suction-mounted to the interior of the windshield, directly behind the impact point. This setup provides the operator with a clear, direct view of the underside of the break, allowing them to monitor their progress from the outside without ever having to walk around the car or repeatedly open the door. Featuring a high-quality 2-inch glass face and a built-in 2x magnification lens, this mirror does more than just reflect light, it actively enlarges the view of the damage. This magnified reflection allows the technician to clearly identify microscopic trapped air pockets, verify that resin has flowed into the absolute tips of the crack legs, and ensure a flawless fill during the vacuum and pressure cycles. Mounted on a versatile 2-inch stem, the mirror can be angled perfectly to catch the light, ensuring a structurally sound and crystal-clear repair before the final UV curing stage begins. Key Features 2x Optical Magnification: Enlarges the impact point and surrounding micro-cracks, making it drastically easier to spot hidden air bubbles and ensure 100% resin penetration. 2-Inch Glass Face: Provides a wide, clear field of view that encompasses the entire repair area (including long crack legs) without obstructing the surrounding workspace. Adjustable 2-Inch Stem: Features a flexible, elongated stem that allows the mirror to be tilted and swivelled to the perfect angle to reflect the break back to the technician. Interior Suction Mounting: Designed to attach securely to the inside of the glass using a standard inspection mirror suction cup, holding its position firmly throughout the entire repair process. Workflow Efficiency: Eliminates the physical strain and wasted time of constantly climbing in and out of the vehicle's cab to verify if a break has been successfully filled. Ideal For Professional Windshield Repair: Stationing on the inside of the glass to monitor resin flow, vacuum draw, and pressure injection during standard rock chip repairs. Commercial Fleet & Heavy Duty: Highly beneficial when repairing semi-trucks, RVs, or heavy machinery where climbing up into the large cab to check a repair is physically demanding and time-consuming. Mobile Auto Glass Techs: Keeping the technician rooted at the exterior repair zone, speeding up the overall service time per vehicle. Common Questions Q: Why do I need a mirror with magnification? A: While a standard flat mirror will reflect the break, the 2x magnification physically enlarges the fine, hair-like legs of a star break or tight bullseye. This makes it significantly easier to see if the resin has reached the very ends of the damage, which is the most critical step in preventing the break from spreading in the future. Q: How long is the mounting stem? A: The mirror is mounted on an approximately 2-inch long stem. This gives you plenty of physical clearance from the glass to tilt, swivel, and angle the mirror precisely where you need it to catch the ambient light. Q: Does this mirror come with the suction cup? A: When purchasing the mirror as a standalone replacement part (MIR-2), the specific 2-inch Inspection Mirror Suction Cup (MIRSC-2) is typically sold separately. However, this mirror and its associated suction cup come standard in almost all comprehensive GT Tools Windshield Repair Kits.
