Easy startup business for income with windshield repair.

[@midlifesniper2733]

I'm thinking about doing this in my area, but fixing chips for consumers. I have a buddy with an auto repair business who said I can set up in his parking lot on the weekends. Do you recommend a certain brand of tools/ resins. Also, how did you get hooked up with these dealerships? I'm guessing all the ones in my area already have someone they use.

I walk in, find the guy in charge of reconditioning and talk to him. I try n fix one to show them my work. A lot of my accounts I picked up 10 years ago. Every two weeks I fix their inventory. And a lot of times I’ll get 3-9 cars at a stop. Better in my opinion than waiting for someone to stop and fix one. You make less per chip but get lots of cars at once. I use delta kits resin. And I have a cheap set of bridges I got from “American windshield”. I think they’re in Arizona. Been using those for 15 years.

Not bad!!! How do you recommend newbie’s getting started doing repairs like this?

[@thatguy7472]

Probably working for someone first

Do you do cracks as well if so how much per crack or inch?

[@thatguy7472]

You really can’t do long cracks. They’ll look good for the short term but in my experience they never last unfortunately. Always reopen
