Much of his business comes from people looking
to restore a family heirloom.
"We are looking for someone who has something
of sentimental value up in the cupboard," Montano said.
He has restored about 200,000 assorted pieces over
the years.
"You see a little bit of everything in this
business," Montano said.
His wife, Jan, 50, travels with him, helping customers
while he works with the glass.
The personal interaction is what she appreciates
most.
"We have met some great people," she said.
Jan Montano said the couple drive about 50,000 miles
each year for work.
"We go where the business is," she said.
The Montanos also offer repair services through
their Web site, attracting about 10 customers each week.
"I can't believe the amount of Internet business
we get from around the world," he said.
Even though Wayne Montano never intended to enter
the glass repair business, he is pleased with his job.
I don't think I could have picked a better occupation."
