Very large pits - tips and tricks??

[mafsu]

Other than cosmetics can anyone give a good reason for not doing these types of repairs. I do these repairs when a customer asks and have decent cosmetic results and excellent structural results.

They use to much resin. I'm cheap

O.K., I said a good reason.

Check out the injector from windshield wizard repair,it has a large end seal very similar
in size to the darts we played with as a kid,it seals well.And guys what the deal with using to much resin ,I mean what can it cost $.50 for a job that will make you $$$.

If you use 50 cents worth of resin on anything but an extremely long crack you must be pouring it on the ground. That's a lot of resin. I understand your point Souchie.

What do you guys consider a large pit? What injectors are you using? I have only once ran across a pit that my injectors did not cover completely(Glass Mechanix). They will cover a 1/2 inch hole without a problem. And a large pit doesn"t use more resin other than an extra drop of pit filler. For the large pit that I did, I used some pit filler to reduce the size on one side and filled as normal(A1 repair saw it this week-end, it's on my car) and it hasnt moved yellowed or budged (about 1 year old now).

Just so all here will know. I had the opportunity to visit with Yvan in the wonderful Province of Quebec, in Granby. He gets an A+. It became obvious to me right away, that he certainly know what he's doing. The glass shops up there better beware!
