Setup is pretty simple. I cleaned the glass, stuck the adapter on, then used the syringe to pull the air out and push the resin in. The instructions are wordy, but once you start, it’s basically a couple of steps and some waiting around. I just answered Slack messages between stages. The crack is still faint if you go looking for it, but the scary white burst is gone. Now it just looks like a tiny shadow instead of something that wants to spread across the windshield. That alone made me glad I didn’t ignore it.

I grabbed this for a small chip on the family SUV so I did not have to schedule a glass guy. The kit works and the chip on the passenger side is less noticeable now. Hardly see it from the driver seat, which is what I cared about with kids in the back asking what that “crack” was. The syringe setup is a bit fiddly though. I had to watch a YouTube video because the paper instructions felt rushed and the resin dripped once when I bumped it. Took about 30 minutes start to finish. For a minor chip it makes sense. If your crack is already long, I would probably call a pro next time.

This Permatex 09103 windshield repair kit works great for small chips, star breaks and bullseye damage on auto glass. The clear resin requires no mixing and cures under natural sunlight, with simple step-by-step instructions included. A rock chip on my windshield threatened to grow into a long crack, so I tried this DIY kit. After cleaning the damage and applying the resin properly, the repair hardened smoothly. The blemish became much less noticeable, and the crack has not expanded through months of temperature swings. The kit is compact and easy to store in my garage. It saved me the high cost of a full windshield replacement. It only works for small damage, so read the limits first. I would absolutely recommend this kit for anyone with minor windshield damage.

Went for this Permatex windshield repair kit because I drive a beater Subaru up rough forest roads every Saturday. I got a star chip from flying gravel on the way to a trailhead and wanted to fix it before it spread. The resin works well. I followed the directions, stuck the little pedestal on, pulled a vacuum, then let it bake in the sun while I laced up my boots. The chip is way less noticeable now and the glass feels smooth. The only letdown, the suction cup mount feels a bit flimsy and slipped once on my curved windshield. I had to press it down hard and reposition.

I bought this after a little rock chip showed up on my windshield during my commute. As a night-shift nurse, I’m usually ready to get home and stop dealing with things, so I wanted a repair I could try myself. I read the directions, cleaned the spot, and applied the resin in the driveway after a shift. It took some patience, but the steps were straightforward. The chip still has a faint mark if I look closely, so I wouldn’t call it invisible. I’m glad I bought the kit because the damage looks less distracting now, and I didn’t have to arrange a repair shop visit on my day off.

Have used this product several times before, so the technique was relatively easy for me. However, this time my tube had very little resident in it. Period my first step was, of course, too put the tube on put the rest in in after sucking the air out, pushing the resident in. After the appropriate time, I took the standoff put another drop on the chip as directed in flat it out using the plastic and razor blade provided. First of all this was a very small chip in the windshield probably the smallest one I’ve ever filled. Wood after being a cure out in the Florida sun, and taking the clear sheet off I noticed a slight imperfection in the middle of the field chip. The rest of the chip looked fine, but there was a little “pimple“ in the middle of it. Since the “pimple“ was actually lower than the rest I couldn’t use a razor blade to even it out. So I went back to my tube. Could one more drop on it and only haul the tube was empty. As I said, I’ve used these kids before, but this one definitely was short of resin and it was disappointing as this kid as known as one of the best on the market and as I said, I’ve used it several times, but this was very disappointing this time. Unfortunately, I didn’t use it till after the allowed return although I probably wouldn’t have bothered since it was only a $20 item but again very disappointed.

I had a small 1/2 inch chip in my windshield that started to spider web out about another 1/2 inch. After reading the directions thoroughly a couple times I began the process. The instruction are relatively clear but a couple instructions are a little confusing, so make sure you read it carefully. But after I finished and took off the applicator I was genuinely impressed with the results. It completely flowed into the few spider web cracks and filled the chip completely. You could still see a slight outline of the chip but only under intense scrutiny. I was a little wary with some of the lower reviews, but take them with a grain of salt, as this works extremely well. I have high confidence that it will prevent the crack from spreading in the future. This kit is worth every penny!

It can save you from small cracks if properly used. The product is overprized compared to other countries - Germany, USA, Canada.

It did a good job for windshield repair. Although it could never remove the big chip completely as magic, it perfectly filled all small cracks which should stop them from spreading further. I would definitely recommend this product.

I was driving along and a truck came out of a construction site and kicked up a series of stones towards my vehicle. I heard a loud crack and some other noises. When I got home I found a chip near the rear view mirror. I ordered one of these kits, washed the car to remove impacted dirt, let it dry and went about fixing the problem. I had considered one of the windshield repair stores but their prices deterred me and my car is relatively old. It was time for low cost solutions. The process is a little esoteric and involves sticking a plastic mount onto the windshield and then pouring the filler compound into the mount, then varying the air pressure in the mount by means of attaching a syringe and raising and lowering the plunger and leaving it in position for a set period of time. After that you wipe up the excess, stick a little of the acrylic material on a curing strip and apply it over the damaged area and drive the car into the sun. All of this can only be done in relatively warm weather, check instructions for temperature requirements. When I got the car outside I examined the windshield and guess what, there was another chip, and when I looked more closely there was yet another one, although more minor. I ordered kits to repair these two damaged areas and when I was all done I am sure I was able to fix all three for dramatically less than the windshield repair companies charge. The repairs look good and the good news is that they are all repaired as if lef chips can become cracks and then they spread and you are looking at a new windshield. The kit was relatively easy to use and saved a lot of money so I am happy I used it.

É um pouco trabalhoso seguir todas as etapas de reparo. Mas o resultado foi igual de um profissional. A resina é bem sensível ao UV. Na sobra enquanto aplicando a resina, ela mantém bastante fluidez. Mas depois leva o carro ao sol a resina endureceu em 15 minutos como o manual explica. Se fosse mais barato ia comprar mais. Tem mais batidas na para-brisa...

A windscreen "repair" kit that works. It can't save every time, but worth it for hits that haven't really radiated yet. Makes the bullseye etc a lot less distracting, and we've had repairs that helped hold a screen together for years. Better than the time and money on new.
