    I use to do windshield repair. Done right a chip or crack repair can last for years. A lot of guys would use cheap resin or the wrong type of resin and not cure it properly. I would also turn jobs down becouse the glass was known to be a brittle brand or if it was too old . The key to a good repair was if the damage just happened. If too much time goes by then contaminate or water could get in the crack then it would affect the strength of the repair.

    In my experience, you normally don't have to worry about gravel from traffic traveling in the same direction as you.
    The only times my windshield got a big chip in it was from traffic coming the opposite way.
    The combined speed is why.

      My windshield was cracked while following a car. A rock in their tire shot out an impacted the windshield. It came out of the tire at 50 mph and hit me at a combined speed of 100. All my windshield damage was done while traveling on the interstate.

      You can usually get the insurance company to pay for it IF you are careful with your words. Make sure you tell them that the projectile, be it a rock or some other metal object etc, came straight off another car. DO NOT EVER say it hit the ground and bounced because then they can say that you could have avoided it. If you tell them it never hit the ground, it's considered a "missile" and they will pay for it. Of course, the insurance companies don't want you to know this.

    I watched a guy with an RV and a slide out awning do 12 windshields in a day. He used a trailer with a glass rack, tool storage, and had power and fans blowing everywhere. He had a helper. He had a bid crane on wheels that attached to the trailer and it was used to install the windshields. I had never seen an operation like this. He traveled around to dealerships and took calls in between. He told us he was going to do a few more when he cut loose at 5pm too. Some side jobs I guess. Guy was a beast. It was in Atlanta, Ga.

      The downvotes are because autoglass techs know the flaws in some of the things he is saying. Chinese manufacturers are getting better than some American ones, he just sounds like someone who read a forum. Also our adhesive manufacturers don't tell us not to install outdoors. If a company as big as safelite does mobile replacements, it is safe. They don't want a lawsuit if someone gets hurt because of them. Plus I have stories of jobs done mobile and that car ended up in a really bad accident, but it held strong. He doesn't know it all about autoglass, but most mechanics don't. We downvote it because he is misinforming our customers
