Now you can imagine what we do with this in the automotive glass replacement industry! Just about everything lol. Prying up scuttle panels, cleaning out broken glass from door frames, removing switches and bits from door pads, etc.... This gets used EVERYDAY without fail and nowhere NEAR the job it was intended to be used for, and as such the point wears quickly to a blunt stub and can snap off aswell....

But even tho my dealer knows how we use em and what we use em for, he still replaces the blade on em everytime we ask!
Thrush- how much are they.. I use them when I install car kits- I loose 1 a year and find them difficult to source locally.
