DIY windshield repair?
Hi fellas,
I have a very small chip, no crack, on my windshield exterior. Any recommendations for repair, DIY or take it to a pro? Thx, Chris |

ChrisFix has a few youtube videos on repairing small windshield chips using a resin-based filler kit. I bought this kit on amazon and will attempt this DIY solution on my wife's car this weekend: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00EIIH6PC

Most insurance will waive the deductible and companies like Safelite will come to you. Safelite has done a few repairs for me. The last ones were pretty bad and I took it to their shop. I couldn't even tell where the repair was.

Rain-X Windshield Repair
I've used the Rain-X kit a few times previously and had really good success with it on rock chips and even a couple star chips that were less than 1/2" diameter. Can find it at Wal-Mart and its pretty affordable, easy to follow instructions.

I used the RainX kit a few years ago on a pickup windshield. The repair worked great and was invisible. I followed the instructions to the T.
