Creating Unbreakable Glass: A Step-by-Step Guide

Quck answer

Glass can be made unbreakable by using a special type of material called “durable glass.” Durable glass is created by adding layers of plastic or resin between two layers of traditional glass. This makes the glass stronger and more resistant to breaking. Another method is to treat the glass with a special chemical coating that increases its strength and durability. Additionally, glass can be tempered or laminated to make it less prone to breaking. These techniques are commonly used in the production of car windshields, bulletproof glass, and other applications where unbreakable glass is desired.


Although most glass windows are not designed to be unbreakable, there is a way to reinforce their strength. By applying a protective film, similar to window tints, you can give your windows a shatter-proof quality from the outside. This not only deters burglaries but also provides added protection during severe natural disasters such as hurricanes, wind storms, or tornadoes.

Step 1

Start by wetting the interior side of the window’s glass with a powerful window cleaner. If you don’t have any, you can make your own solution by filling a 2-quart spray bottle with distilled water and adding a drop of baby shampoo or a similar soap. Thoroughly dampen the interior side of the glass using this cleaning solution, and then use a squeegee or a similar tool to clean the window.

Step 2

Measure the height and width of the window’s interior glass. Lay out the shatter-proof film on a flat surface and use measuring tape, a pencil, and a utility knife to measure, mark, and cut the film accordingly. Make sure to leave a 1/2-inch overhang on each side of the film.

Step 3

Soak the adhesive side of the film with your soapy spray solution. Apply some soap to your fingertips and peel off the film from the adhesive sealer attached to the back side of the film.

Step 4

Place the adhesive side of the film onto the window, aligning the top right and left corners of the film with the upper corners of the window’s glass. Leave a 1/8-inch overhang on each side of the window’s glass. Slowly press down the rest of the film onto the window, ensuring that the edges of the film align with the edges of the window.

Step 5

Wet the surface of the film with distilled water. Use a squeegee or a similar tool to remove any air bubbles on the film’s surface. Spray ample amounts of water on the film to prevent it from drying out while you’re getting rid of the air bubbles.

Step 6

Use a lint-free cloth to wipe off any excess water and moisture from the film’s surface. Allow several minutes for the film to dry and adhere to the window’s glass.
