Well I have a small crack coming from a rock chip at the bottom of my windshield. And Titus hasnt even come over to visit. Is there anything I can do to keep it from spreading? It is a few inches from the bottom now, but it seems to spread everyday a little more.
Glass coverage is usually cheap if you claim it on insurance. The other option is to have the chip 'injected' and try to repair it that way.
And with the current day heat and night cool (relative) temps, it's gonna keep spreading.Quote:

Alright, so for the fix it kits I fill in the chip and the crack? I guess they come with instructions.
Provided the crack hasn't migrated clear across the windshield, yes. The instructions are pretty clear.Quote:

Just be sure to follow the instructions exactly as described. Don't do like I did and try to apply pressure to the syringe (like you're injecting something) or else your chip will expand like a spider web before your very eyes.Quote:
