    I just had a cracked windshield fixed last week, it is AWESOME !.... The new windshield was going to cost me around 500 bucks, but I stopped by and had a repair guy do it for 50 bucks and I cant even see it anymore. It was a good repair job and he saved me 450 bucks, Believe me, I need to save money today too, I lost my job 2 months ago and money is TIGHT !

    I am always amazed at the people who only replace windshields and think because I can perform long crack repairs that I am only a repair shop. I have been in the Auto Glass replacement and repair business for over 30 years and both have there place. Windshield repair is a good alternative to replacement on many damages and the industry has been around since 1972. We also offer a lifetime warranty! Most insurance companies pay the cost of preventive repair. They would not pay if it was a scam.

    It depends sometimes if the crack is a single crack coming from the edge and you can reach it with a drill to put a stop at the tip. Then if you can inject some of the crack from the tip to the edge with resin you usually can save the windshield.. You would not need to fill all of the crack to stop it and save the windshield. We have also had good success with repairing cracks that start from the mirror bracket.

The car is fairly rare... Especially here in Canada and new glass is nearly impossible to find. I'm going to have to look into repairing it with UV resin. Nice work and thanks for sharing.

    the crack is very tight at the tip and needs a real thin resin as it goes to the Edge gets wider a gap like about 12,000 wife or So. So thin resin will not Bond where there's a Gap is like trying to use super glue or you need epoxy.

      @Tim Evans,
      Where do you exactly tap using a needle to create a bull’s eye: past the Dremel drilled point and exactly opposite where the crack stops?
      I tend to think the little drilling at 2/16th of an inch in front of the crack end suffices to serve the purpose of stopping the crack from propagating, and rather fear the tapping would create multi-directional crack seeds (but apparently that’s not the case as you’ve successfully completed thousands of repairs that held up but I’m trying to understand why my theory isn’t valid). The drilling with the Dremel creates a tiny crater that catches and ends the crack from proceeding further. So, I’d like to learn of your comments on my theories.

(I'll also have to have something done because new windscreens are hard to source.) It may not be perfect, but it was pretty amazing how much of an improvement it made.

    Tim,
    I have to say "that's impressive ".
    Being in the autoglass replacement Industry for 30 years and an NGA Master Autoglass Technician, I can honestly say I've never seen that done before.
    Probably because the industry and most reputable busineses and insurance companies don't recommend such large repairs.
    You should let these guys know that the two substrates, glass and the Ultraviolet Cured Polymer Resin will separate, over a short period of time and the crack will reappear, leaving them with the same problem that they came to you with.
    Just because you can't see it now, doesn't mean that it's safe or even repaired.
    This is one of the reasons to replace as opposed to putting a "band-aid "on it.

      @DanOfTheWild This is not what dentists use for fillings and what is used to repair small planned and uniform holes in teeth that will not be exposed for long periods of time should not be used to repair 21 inch cracks in glass. You are ignorant to dentistry and glass science. About 14 inches and that windshield is compromised. Even the best resin and techniques and you will still see yellowing and shrinking in a 3-4 years if not kept in cover most of that time. These are never lifetime solutions. They are to get you on your way and save you some money for now. I understand people use this as their livelihoods and plenty of people do shoddy work to make a quick buck but these guys are doing it wrong.

    Yes cracks that are cracked on the inside pane of glass can be repaired, if you can reach the end of the crack to dill it and if you can get the Crack Eraser tool positioned to inject resin into the crack. Sometimes the dash is in the way and it is difficult to reach the crack to perform a repair.

    Dear Ian,
    Windshield Repair is free in the UK also. You will have a harder time finding someone to repair a crack over 6 inches unless they have my technology, but I took the following repair information off a major glass shop in the UK.
    Safelite® LONDON
    "Repairing a windshield is also a good value. If you have comprehensive coverage, and if you choose to repair your windshield rather than replace it, most insurance companies will waive your deductible, leaving no cost for you."

    And you just duped another. The windshield is broken and will NEVER be as strong as the original. Of course your deceptive sign advertising your business is smoke and mirrors also. Another sham by the insurance company to not pay for repair for the customers. I hope you don't cost someone their life when the air-bag deploys.

    You can repair a crack if you can reach the tip to drill it. you need to load the injector by putting the resin in the bottom then installing the injector seal.

    What size/ type of drillbit can you use for that? And what do you use to tap the bull’s-eye? Meaning if you don’t have specialized tools. Trying to fix my own windshield.

    Any advice on a crack that goes right to the edge of the glass and where one side of the crack is raised up above the other? I haven't tried pressing on the raised side to make it flush in case I crack or break it more. One is raised above the other by about 1/8".

  • @unclemikeb
    @unclemikeb Před 7 lety

    This can be a real cost saver, windshields can be very expensive to replace and if people have gone to $500 deductible to save money they will be coughing up the whole $500 for most cars. Unless you can find a small shop to do a used windshield.
    Years ago my insurance company offered me a deal. Back then windshield repair cost $50.00. If I paid the $50 in an attempt to save the windshield they would wave my deductible if the windshield cracked. Mine had a large multi pointed chip in it about the size of dime. The repair held for ten years.
    I can't comment on how well a large crack like this will hold up but I know that resins you apply with a dual compound mixture are VERY strong. I recommend you contact your insurance agent before you pay for a repair like this. Get them on board and they might make an offer like mine did.

      From my experience,not many will repair long cracks,and if they do the damage will continue on from where the old crack used to be.

  • @windshieldrepairkits
    @windshieldrepairkits  Před 11 lety +1

    If you have comprehensive insurance the repair is usually free because your insurance company pays for preventive repair by waiving your deductible, however you need to have the repair done within 3 months of the crack starting because of the dirt and contamination in the crack. With chip repair time does not matter but crack repairs are time sensitive.If the crack is under 3 months old the charge for a cash job is usually between $70.00 and $90.00
