Any suggestions???? You're the one that is so busy and doing so well that you are doing 4 repairs at one time. You are the one making 4 X $40 = $160
in 30 min. We don't need to give you advice..... it sounds like to me that you need to give us advice.
I'm just a slow talking boy from TN. I like to keep my eyes on one at a time.
I even talk slow.

Keep us the good work.

I find that if you are going back and forth monitoring things you can do several at a time

You will be busy thats for sure. I usually have to spend some time flexing my mostly star breaks that I get. Someday I will be busy enough to have to worry about that many injectors :) Glassstar is correct you will just have to be moving back and forth alot monitoring each break.

I do not think I want rockaway working on my truck if he or she can not give it their full attention.


If you are working 4 cars at one time and all of a sudden you have one that is giving you a hard time and time flys past you, now you find out you have 3 others that cracked out from the heat rising or under presure to long and you were to deep into the one that was giving you a hard time... you just cost your self 3 chips or just bought 3 windshields..


DO not be greedy. Max 2 cars at a time if one chip each. It is a car lot, it is not going anyplace soon.

Just a scenario that just went through my head reading this post.

3 or 4 at a time should be no problem. I regularly have 2 or 3 going at the same time and it presents no problems. Most of the time spent working on a repair is spent waiting for the injector to do its job or waiting for the resin to cure. That leaves plenty of time to setup or check on other injectors.

your right that is why i started to do 2 cars at once and there was time to go back to each car . i found it also helps with the repair buy beeing on the window longer and you dont have me in a rush to get to the next job.the injecter is on longer that cant be a bad thing. and gt repair i allways put up my windshield repair unbrella from liquid resins open all the windwos to all the cars and cool down the glass with alchole works great. thanks for all the help.:eusa_danc :tongue: :eusa_doh:
