In reply to Sarah Anderson. Sarah, i totally agree if you have a small spider web crack it is a great temporary solution. As far as pricing, you won't have to spend a lot of money on these kits. Thanks.

In reply to David Hawkins. Thanks David, all of these brands Rain-X, Permatex, Mookis or Blue Star can get the job done for a cheap price. If you need a more professional kit try the Tri Glass Quality package that includes a DVD with all the information you need to repair automotive windshield windows. Best of luck.

In reply to Grace Turner. Unfortunately, these windshield repair systems are not recommended for repairs that are near the edge of your window or glass. These kits are design to cover smaller spider web cracks, and the beauty of them is that it is a DIY solution that you can do yourself. Stay safe.

In reply to Vince Burns. Vince thanks for your comment. If your front window is cracked the safe thing to do for you and the one's who always travel with you, is to replace the window. However, these windshield repair kits can cover small spider cracks that are smaller than a US quarter. They work magic if you do the process correctly.

Chipped windshields are the worst. I know that they can get worse and even start to crack if you do not repeat it soon. I did not know that the position of the crack or chip could influence whether you could repair it or replace it.

I was driving on the freeway when a big truck’s tire kicked up a stone and it hit my windshield. It left a pretty considerable crack, and I don’t know what to do for it. I didn’t know that you could get tool kits! I’ll make sure my windshield is fixable first. Thanks for sharing!

They should call that first crack the spider. It looks like a spider was smashed into the window. I’m lucky that mine isn’t that big, but it is starting to spread. It looks like it could be an easy fix at the moment. How big of a chip and crack do you think they can fix?

Thank you for sharing. I did not know you could repair a windshield like this. The video was most helpful. I have a small chip in my window just on the bottom right. It seems like it might be easier since it’s not in the direct line of sight. I will look into this.

I never knew you could repair glass like this. You can’t even see where it was in the video. Normally when I get a crack like this I just replace it, but no longer.

That’s really cool that there are ways to actually repair chips and dents in your glass. My car recently got a pretty nasty crack in the windshield from driving behind a semi-truck. I’m not sure if this method will work for a crack so big, so I might just take it to a service to be safe. Thanks for the guide!

I’m super disappointed that the edge of the windscreen is the one place that makes the whole thing weaker. My car is literally a month old and when driving down the road the other day a construction vehicle kicked up a rock that hit the edge of my window. I was hoping it would just be a quick repair. Hopefully I can find someone soon to repair it rather than replace it. Do I need to replace it if it is just a little dent on the edge of the window?

I didn’t know that if the rock basically put a hole in the windscreen that you basically have to replace the entire window. There isn’t a way that people can get the chip patched up and looking good again? I think it would be a shame to have to replace your windshield because of a 2mm hole in the glass.
