    I just did this today. I am actually super surprized it work. Not only did it fill the chip crack, but you can barely even see it was there! I thought I'd be paying $300 for a new windshield on the daily beater... glad this actually worked! w00t w00t!

    I regret getting it done by a professional that cost me 250 dollars and needed my car for 3 hours. Doesn't look better than what I see in this video.
    Nice Job !!

    I had one repaired professionally in Florida because our auto inurance has zaeo deductible for windshiel repair or replacement. Repair had a lifetime guarantee. Procedure was very similar to yours, except they used a cigarette lighter applied to the inside of the windshield ro create more suction.

      I had a rock chip fixed by a glass company and my insurance covered it as well, when I switched insurance a year or so later that glass repair counted as a claim and my rate was impacted…point being nothing is free, and now I will just fix it myself.

      Yup, I would never go through insurance. A claim is a claim, and that's how they justify rate increases!

    This came out really good. I've seen this before but I went to the shop that replaced my windshield last year after getting a minor chip driving on the highway today. Mine wasn't as bad as this but came out pretty good also. They charged me $60 which I guess is pretty reasonable. He said their is a 95% chance it will not spread come Winter time. I sure hope he's right!

    I believe in fate. I was just thinking of my windshield today and did not want to have a buy a whole new one because of a crack. Now, I am happy to try this.
    BTW, I see you have come a long way in your channel. Great work.

      I actually had that happen but it literally poked a hole in the windshield and had to replace it. I didn’t turn in an insurance claim. The cost to fix it by paying myself was basically what my deductible was, $250. This was about 10 years ago, probably more like $400-$450 now.

    Actually quite dangerous. Even small "fractures" like this can cause massive tension and destabilization to your windscreen. But hey... looks better atleaast.

      So I suppose you just recommend replacing the windshield all together, and not do a repair?
