But if there's an existing weakness in the screen (eg from a stone chip), putting hot water on a frozen screen may well propagate a crack. It's happened to me twice, and my other half (who is a materials scientist and an expert on fracture mechanics) gave me a right ticking off, especially the second time it happened.
Yep; so with a few more tests you'll be able to advise on the critical flaw size?
Have you had the talk re tearing energy and crack growth rates in rubber bushes yet?!
