Repair or Replace Windshield Advice

Post by zubby »

In your professional opinions, will you recommend repairing a crack that is a little less than two 1 dollar bills (about 10 inches) starting at the outside edge of the middle section and running a downward. This is on the passenger side.

OR replace the windshield?? Thanks in Advance.

I personaly repair those. However you can't use regular repair resin on a long crack. You have to use a thicker more resiliant resin. At least in my opinon.

Why not repair it? If you can get the crack jacks behind it, fix it and save your customers money!
