Windshield Repair Forum

I will order my next resin in the eye dropper form. I am wasting resin using the squezze bottle method. Furthermore, RV's/Trucks are harder to repair if you do not have a eye dropper or syringe.

Whats the big deal on the price of a few drops of resin? If you are concerned about a couple of dollars of resin, personally, I wouldn't want you working on my windshield. Same with saving a minute or two on a repair, I have seen companies advertise how "fast" their system is, again, whats an additional couple of minutes? I'm into quality, not quantity, I sleep very well at night.

As business folks in a tough economy, I think many of us analyze our costs and constantly look for ways to lower expenses and increase revenues. At the end of "a" day, paying $55 for what costs $25 or even $15 elsewhere doesn't make much difference. At the end of 10 years though, it translates to a 5-yr-old Honda VTX 1800R. on the other hand, if using oatmeal as your resin, costs are low but so is quality, though I bet DK scientists are still searching for something that bonds as well as egg yolks and oatmeal.

What we all have to decide though is where that right balance is. For me, the DK resin is 70% better than Polylite and costs 100% more. The 25%? That's the rub. my personal choice is Delta Kits resin. While my profit is lower in th eshort term, happy customers are worth it!
