Rainbows on my windshield??

yep. sa tempered glass, ganyan. something to do with the composition of the glass.

hope this link helps:

The pattern of cooling during the process can be revealed by observing the glass with polarized light, which shows the strain pattern in the glass.

i don't know if this was relevant. but it is common for the tempered glass to have this kind of effect (eto yung 'rainbow effect' na sinasabi).

actually kahit "laminated" glass is just 2 tempered glass bonded with a laminated sheet sa gitna, kaya meron padin yan.

Depende lang sa pagkagawa ng salamin at sa age nya.

and talking about the 'rainbows' may effect ba yung laging naka-bilad sa araw? i mean, pag laging naka-bilad mas mabilis ba than usual lumabas yung 'rainbow' na ito? i've observed that kasi dun sa old schooler naming Toyota. laging naka-bilad- ayun may mga lines sa windshield...

replace the windshield ...

or use a polarized sunglass? affordable yung AXN ang brand, dami sa malls, but then you might have a problem with the LCD display of your car stereo or instrument panel hehe
