Windscreen Damage

The first thing to do is to remove all the silicon sealant from the shower. I prefer to remove the shower enclosure from the tray and take it outside of the bathroom to clean and remove the sealant, this a time consuming job but if you do the job right the first time you won’t be doing it again in 6 months time, you can get silicon removers, which help but are quite expensive.

What Damage Would Fail the MOT? MOT test info

The MOT testers manual says “any damage not contained within a circle of 10mm” so a cluster of minor damage could also fail
