    My understanding is that this stuff works well on windshields because of their 3-layer construction (glass-plastic-glass). Typical cracks only go through the first one or two layers, so you can "fill" the cracks completely, all the way to the bottom of the crevace.
    Here's a few thoughts:
    1) Watch a video on how to apply the stuff on windshields (apply slowly, watching the resin slowly fill in ahead of the applicator - don't get ahead of it)
    2) Very gently pull up a little on the glass a little with a small suction cup - this will "open" the crack slightly on the outer screen, allowing the resin to get into the crack better.
    3) Hold the phone vertically while you apply resin, and start applying from the top (it helps to use gravity to "pull" the resin downwards, and hopefully prevent any resin from getting down into the lamination layer between the glass and LCD)
    4) Look carefully, very gently try to work out any small air bubbles you see in the cracks.
    5) Then apply resin again, this time covering everything, apply the plastic strips, let it cure, scrape off excess.
    6) Never push on the screen intentionally.
    I really like Free Market Joe's idea of using the resin as a "glue" to hold on a glass screen protector. Very clever!

    The little strips of plastic Are for putting over the liquid to push it down into the crack the only way to dry the liquid is with UV light pointing it up to the sun, and the blade is for scratching the resin when it has gone hard the blade at a 90-degree angle and scratch off resin at a surface-level leaving the resin only in the crack when it has cured, depending on the crack you have there are different viscosity the skinny cracks need a liquid that is fine and will soak into the crack.

  • @paran0ia7
    @paran0ia7 ปีที่แล้ว +15

    The thing that all the videos I've seen on this topic all seem to get wrong is that you can't rush and skip steps; this isn't something that is intended to be done quickly.
    The uncured resin has to sit for a good while, and you want to (gently) tap and press on the area all around the cracks to work it in deep and get any air out. Then let it cure for a good half-hour at least; longer if the cracks are deep. When removing the film do NOT pull it, instead peel up just enough of the edges to get a good grip then twist it back and forth until it breaks away via shearing. Finally, be patient with the scraping. Don't rip up big chunks once they're partially freed, just scrape little by little and let the razor do everything.
    For cracks and small chips this type of resin is incredible, and truly invisible if applied correctly. There is a reason that professional auto-glass repair shops use the stuff.

  • @freemarketjoe9869
    @freemarketjoe9869 2 ปีที่แล้ว +51

    Just a thought. Put the stuff on and then, instead of the plastic sheets, use a tempered glass protector and just leave it there, glued on by this junk.then you will have strength and hopefully no lines. Push out any air gaps following the glass install procedures, using a decent amount of the repair goop to seep in. The glass may even act as a vacuum to help draw the stuff into the cracks if you carefully chase out the air bubbles by gently pressing down as you seat the glass. Worst case you now have a smooth glass cover now that has to look better and protect better than it was before. Just remember…do not buy a screen protector with U.V. protection built in….you will not be able to cure the goop under the protector if you do.

Works about 50% of the time.. you use the crack resin the same way you did with the Mylar plastic sheets.. also you need to clean the screen of any fingerprints and let it dry completely. Any moisture or debris in the cracks will stop the resin from entering.. "one more very important thing"... windshield repair resin can be toxic so always where chemical resistance gloves..

    I was wondering if I could use this. Years ago I fixed a rock strike on my windshield, also had some small fractures coming out of it and used the windshield kit, so easy. The center knob of the suction device goes on the crack and you squirt the resin into a hole at the top. Screw it down and it spreads the resin thru the fractures.
    Being this isn't a deep fracture, he used too much resin and should have used the razor blade to smooth the resin up through it. This would work tho. Very similar.

    This does work... but I discovered that you need to ensure the plastic you cover it with is big enough to cover the phone, one piece, remove all the bubbles and leave it in the sun long enough for it to dry. This lines he's talking about are due to the small plastic screen covers.
    My phone turned out really well other than a little bubbles that Ididn't remove.

    I doordash. Unfortunately that's not very good on phones. I dropped it so many times that there were cracks from the top all the way to the bottom. There were very few spaces where there wasn't a crack. I didn't have the money to buy a new phone, because I wanted to wait and get a semi-decent one. I just went ahead and used 3M clear packing tape. I covered the entire surface of the phone. It helped all those cracks stay together for months. Also, it kept the glass from cutting my finger over and over. If you can't find a better alternative, that'll get you through. The problem is how hard it is to see things on the screen.
    I looked into it a little bit and it sounds like, for my particular phone, the best thing to do was to buy both the digitizer and the screen and take off the digitizer and add them both. It sounded less messy and like you wouldn't have a problem getting all that glass off. My digitizer was fine though.

    • @JoeDoesStuff
      @JoeDoesStuff  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The way phones are made now, it's always recommended to replace both. With the factory screen both pieces are laminated together. Buying just the digitizer is usually a gimmick for the average person, they are meant for refurbishers.

    It’s very nice of you to buy that and spend the time to show us your results. I always wondered about that product. Have you thought of using a UV light bulb? (not black light. And make sure you wear yellow glasses or your retina can melt)
    Also, since you didn’t read the directions, maybe you just flubbed it all the way around.
    I recommend starting again. Just to be sure.

    • @JoeDoesStuff
      @JoeDoesStuff  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Read my pinned comment about the UV bulb. If you have ever watched a windshield repairman do this repair, you will notice they use a tool a press hard into the windshield, forcing the cracks to open and allow the resin to thoroughly penetrate the fractures. You don't have that luxury on such a delicate device. The resin will never fill the cracks properly because of that.
      Thanks for the watch and comment also! Looks like you have some good knowledge on fixing things!

    • @jeroentjemulders
      @jeroentjemulders 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      ​@@JoeDoesStuff Hey Joe, what if you could somehow apply a vacuum to the glass?
      Or more precisely, a pressure difference that supports inflow of the resin. I don’t think it needs a lot of pressure, just a minor difference should already show effect (assuming a low enough viscosity resin).
      Drawback of a phone is of-course that you can only work the screen from one side, unlike a car windshield repair. I wouldn't be surprised if the repair-kit instructions advise you to work from the inside of the car in case the crack has gone through both layers of glass. My phone appears to have been dropped exactly like yours judging by spider its webbed cracks from bottom left corner and the missing chip of glass.
      Guess I'm willing to go a long way before having to open my phone and damage even more stuff for sure. Nice channel b.t.w. High five from the Netherlands. J.

    • @JoeDoesStuff
      @JoeDoesStuff  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Possibly. I think the main thing that affects the results is that you can't get the resin completely into the cracks. When I've watched windshield repairs, they usually use a metal tool and push on the glass to open up the cracks for the resin. I doubt that's possible on a phone screen without breaking the display.

    The applicator presses and opens up the crack allowing the liquid to get into the damaged area.
    Leave the applicator in place, you will see the fluid travelling up the crack, don't run the fluid on top of the crack as you did, let the applicator do its thing.
    Once the cracks are invisable place on the film and harded in the sun, or better still under a uv light.
    If a part of the crack still shows move the applicator over the crack and do that bit.
    once you have an invisable crack it wont be strong, it only makes the crack invisable, fit a glass screen protector.
