The tool is very thin at the end. It is designed to slip between the small gap between the glass and the A-pilar plastic and roof liner and cut the sealant. I've had 2 windshields replaced on a previously owned Civic and one on my Accord. I've never had any problem with damage from the tool. The main area that I have noticed some installers do better than others is the exterior seal. They usually reuse the one you have so long as it is in good shape. I've noticed some installers get it nice and flush just like it was never removed. I've seen some that are less than perfect and look a little sloppy.
