Permatex should’ve paid you for making this video. Thanks for making it, their written instructions were a little challenging to follow.

[@getaway_guide]

Such a nice compliment. Thank you, Paul.

After being quoted $150 to fix my windshield crack, I knew there had to be a way to get this done cheaper. I found your video, bought the same product, followed your instructions, and it worked! Thank you so much for the clear instructions. You saved me $134!!

Honestly, I didn't even crack the instruction pamphlet. Thanks for supporting my lazy endeavors!

​@@getaway_guidethat is not a safety razor. That is called a single edge razor blade. Safety razors have 2 edges and go into a safety razor holder for shaving your face. They're called safety razors because they have a guard that stops you from cutting yourself if you put too much pressure.

[@ziktomek]

I'm English so I had a cup of tea whilst waiting. The instructions for my kit were absolutely useless so your video was very helpful. Thanks

[@getaway_guide]

You’re welcome 😊

[@deathstrike8992]

Great video. Sticks to the point and well explained. Doing this fix on my Sienna today. Key is get at it as soon as you see a crack. Doesn’t take long to expand.

[@getaway_guide]

Agreed. Gotta catch it before it spreads!

[@markrickel1632]

Loved your video. Very concise and accurate. For those about to do this repair that haven’t bought the kit. Make a phone call to your insurance as you may be able to get safe lite to do it for free. My results were ok, not great. If I were doing it again I would put one drop directly on the chip after the mounting pad was installed and before the collar thing. Would also put plenty of pressure on the collar to make sure it and the pad were sealed well. I would also insert the resin tube in the collar instead of just dropping resin in. My chip was small and was hoping for the almost invisible repair, but it looks like the resin didn’t quite make it all the way up to the highest part of the chip. Good luck all!!!

[@CEH477]

THANK YOU so much for this. The written instructions are a little intimidating for a car repair novice. Your video made it very easy to understand. And I love that you’re a fellow Office fan. 😁

Very accurate, concise, and to the point. I watched your video, then read the instructions that come in the package just in case. *You nailed it.*

Thank you for the video. The directions in the kit manual were sort of confusing, but I could repair mine successfully thanks to your simple and kind instructions.

[@sarahbrembry6913]

Very user friendly thank you so much.. did it myself! 🎉

[@bobglin4209]

Thanks for this video. If I was left to the instructions from Permatex I would have been in trouble. The car recently got hit by a pebble kicked up by a truck which left a 1/4 inch divot in the glass. It wasn't so bad that I needed a new windshield but living in NH I know that in the winter this divot would eventually get worse. So I tried Permatex. Things to note about the process: With my Permatex kit the syringe metal stops broke immediately, and I had to fiddle with it to make it "sorta" work. No kidding about having a rag available. During my process today I had the 20 minute wait and left the vehicle for 10 minutes or so and came back to see a 9 inch resin river on my windshield. Fortunately it cleaned up easily but I'd recommend not to leave the vehicle during any of the steps. In the end the repair was pretty good. I'd say it looks about 90% better. The Permatex instructions are less than adequate, and the syringe stop metal broke. On a one to 10 basis, I give the product a 5 as far as ease of use and a 9 for results. Your video is a 10.

[@lancer717]

I agree. Permatex needs to create a QR code with this video attached because it was very helpful. I went cross eyed trying to read the instructions lol

[@bobglin4209]

Thanks for the instructions. Mine partially worked. The crack is faintly visible. The resin also escaped from mine after about 15 minutes on the 2nd part of the syringe portion when you push air in.. Also, on the initial tape that you put down on the center of the bulls eye to attach the components, there is protected cover you need to remove on both sides.

[@getaway_guide]

Totally!

[@bcidernable]

Thanks! FWIW I had a crack in my original windshield and it spidered in like 2 days (fall....warm days, cool nights) had to pay a total of over $800 for a generic windshield manufacturer ($200 cheaper than OEM manufacturer) AND a sensor recalibration! Just got a small nick and rice length crack on a 800 mi road trip. No messing around I'm fixing it here before risking 800 mi if vibration and cracks back. I can still see the minute crack but it was so small I'm not sure that the sealer did much inside. Hopefully it works! It'd save me $800 I don't really have to throw away now. $800 could have got me a nice plane flight here and back without the vehicle lol.
