I know I know there are SO MANY verables! Lets say a dime size bulls eye. Average damage that you might see. Im just looking for how many drops from a dropper you would put in the injector. I just find that I always have resin running down the window and wonder if Im using to much. They list 80 repairs for 1/2 OZ, I know I wont get that kind of coverage. If that count IS right I need to cut down on my drops per repair. I find I do about 5 drops. On a dime size one Id do 10. Does this sound excessive?
thanks

Johnnyques, If you are having very much resin running down the glass, your need to first make sure that you are pulling a slight vacuum on your injector before you put it into place on your windshield. This will help hold the resin in the injector body and prevent it from running out while you are getting it into place. Secondly, you need to make sure you have a good seal around your point of impact with your injector seal before starting the process. This will help to save your resin and increase your profits in the long run. :lol:

I do 5-6 drops on most of my repairs. I find that bullseyes need little resin. I tried using as little as possible but sometimes I got greedy and ended up having to add more resin later. So now I just use 5-6 drops everytime.
