what if you feel the crack on the inside, would the same procedure work from the inside as well?

There's a trick. I saw a windshield repair guy use a match on the inside of the window after the equipment with the glue is already in place. You hold a match 1 inch away on the inside directly on the crack for 3 seconds, then pull it away for a second then three on then one off then three seconds a final time. What that does is heat up and expand the glass and as the glass cools off it yanks the glue deep into the cracks and hardens quickly. I've done this for lots of people, know you know the trick.

Brought one of these kits here in the UK from my local Halfords car parts shop as I'd got a good size chip in my windscreen , followed the instructions and it worked brilliantly ... Canon even see where the chip was even under cols examination . Have brought some more bottles of glass resin and a UV light ( as the chip had been cured in good sunlight but this cannot be guaranteed so got the light ) so any future chips or other people's can be fixed .

Just wanted to thank you for your demonstration of using this product, I got peppered by a darn tracker trailer hauling gravel, apparently he was out revenge or something as several of my coworkers all got the same treatment within a week! Ok anyway, I watched your video, and then ordered this product, I had 3 lovely little chips that had not spread, after using this product,, I cannot even see where the chips where! 😊 I live in Montana, where we are very prone to rocks finding there way to our windshields,,,it’s kinda a joke when you have cracks and chips in your windshield that it’s a typical MT windshield. I am also a lady, so anyone remotely handy should be able to do this. Thanks again.

I used this kit to fill in a rock chip my truck had for years and idk why I ever waited. It practically filled everything in to the point I could not even tell it was there anymore. I had resin leftover and filled in 3 cracks on a work vehicle window and it worked great! I would highly recommend this kit for a cheap and easy fix. Im super OCD so anything in my field of vision bugs the heck out of me.

I just found out that my insurance covers these 100%. I have one little pock that could easily spread. 152 euro but insurance works directly with the glass place. Appointment this Saturday. They put a bandaid on it today. Finally, something that just goes right. This is already my third windshield. Its Saturday. Work is finished. It almost invisible and a pair of Bosch wipers for free. Insurance did it all. The repairman also took the time to show me how to remove the wiper arms to repaint them properly.

I don't think it will make it worse. After the resin has set up with UV light, it can easily be scraped off the smooth surface of the glass with a razor blade. Depending on the depth of the scratch it might take a couple applications to completely fill it up.

I've fixed a bad chip before and it held for years but that kit was nothing compared to this one. You can barely see where it was. I went ahead and filled in a bunch of really minor chips too. I cut the uv strips into 2' and 4 pieces . Circled all the chips and put a drop on each. This will work better with 2 people. A helper will make it go easy. The one problem I had was that the suction cups came rotate backwards and the thing wouldnt screw in. then I realized i just had to flip it over. the plunger seated and no sealant came out. filled the hole instantly, My kit was not rainx, it was just like it on amazon.

Someone else said you had to drill a little on either side of the rack to truly keep it from spreading. He made another video on here about this. Did your spread by now even after u did this?

l just did it on some small round chips ,it didn't do much ,I can't see that it made it dissappear but maybe it got some stuff down in the crack.lts good to clean that chip out real good with something that remove any rain x or wax that's gotten down in the hole before you do this.lts curing now...yours looks better than mine ,it doesn't look like it did anything.

If you decide to attempt this again, consider using rubbing / isopropyl alcohol on the crack/chip to try and weaken any oils or waxes that are inside that will prevent resin flow!

@DIYHomesteadProjectsDIYHP10 2 ай бұрын
I don't know I've never tried it without the curing strip. I would try it anyhow but it might be hard to keep the solution over the chip. I might even cutting a piece of a ziplock bag to lay over it until it cures then you can scrape it off with the solution. Just a thought but I've never tried it. I wish you the best. PS: my kit came with about 10 or 15 curing strips.

@KenzertYT
@KenzertYT Жыл бұрын
If you can figure out where the crack began, then you have a good chance of fixing it if you just try and apply the resin from the initial spot it began to crack out from. If it is all internal and isn't from an outer crack, you can, if you are going to replace the windshield anyway... Attempt to use a glass bit to drill into the center of the crack, and inject the resin from there (this worked for me but I am VERY experienced and VERY handy..) I would consider either a new windshield if the part is inexpensive, or, I would consider a professional.. They at least have some degree of liability if they make it worse

I tried this kit on another car and it gave average results and made the crack spread. This latest crack I used the Visbella kit and it runs rings around the rainx kit and gets the resin in deeper for a stronger bond. Rainx is good. Visbella is better.
