Thank you very much for the superb explanation and demonstration. I found it much easier to understand than the manufacturer's instructions and it made me confident to use the product.

I'm not a car geek, so videos like this are a godsend.

Fixing windshield chips isn't rocket science, but it is one of those things where it helps to see the process done. You've provided a clear overview and step by step instructions.

Thanks for the helping hand!

The first 0:30 sec you explained almost EVERYTHING!!! (slow handclap)

Great product. Doesn't completely rid of the chip (nothing ever will) but it's not noticeable now and I'm no longer worried it'll get worse. Thanks for the video, it was much better than the supplied instructions.

I just now used this on my BMW 21 530i. Omg! The Starburst crack is Completely. Great product. Love it.

This should be the gold standard for instructional YouTube videos

Your video made me feel confident that I was able to do the repair myself. Thanks for your help!!!

I got very good results & this quick n easy tutorial helped me avoid making a mistake with this particular style of repair kit. Getting the plastic threads secured in position is not easy. I applied some vibration to the glass as well to help completely fill the cracks.

I love the brief over view before the demonstration. Very helpful, sir! Thank you so much!

It is my sincere hope that as you helped me today that this video remains top of the search results to help others tomorrow.

Please note, if it’s cloudy and 45 - 50 degrees F, I used my windshield defroster for 25min and it worked like a charm! My crack was the same size as his to give you an idea.

Thank you! you directions were so much faster and more simple.

Also, the sooner you fix the chip/crack, the better the result, i applied it to mine and it improved 70%, but i waited about 2-3 weeks after the damage (damage happened during a coast-to-coast move and it rained, and accumulated dirt and grime, so the cracks, while reduced are still visible as i assume absorbed moisture/sediment particles and the resin can't completely go in there, was still a worthy temporary improvement while i replace the whole windshield, also structurally the cracks won't get bigger because they are filled. So if you suffer damage, fix it asap.

thank you. Searched for an exhaustive version and i found it here. Thanks again

Thank you for helping me see how easy this is, I was over complicating it 😊

This thing works! The main thing is to get the hole on the tube lined up perfectly with the point of impact.

I appreciate the speed you used in this demonstration, some videos are just too fast. I found this much easier to understand than the written instructions inside, thank you sir 😊

[osaretin]

Thank you, I was able to fix the star shape on my windshield. You can’t even see it, just need to cover the line side with some sunlight, tomorrow and one can even tell I had one. Omg I wish I can 🤗 you. My car is a new 2023 Toyota and Toyota was going to charge me $2100. You are a life and money saver.

You answered every question i had after watching multiple unhelpful videos. Thank you! I will be doing this later today, and you gave me the confidence of knowing exactly how and what to do.

So, I'm just going to recommend to NOT push from the inside at all. I used this on two chips on two different cars. I followed the packaging instructions and recommendations from this and other videos about giving a gently push from inside to help work any air bubbles out and to help the resin to flow inside. I gave barely any pressure (even less on the second windshield) and I ended up with 7-9" cracks on both instead of just a little chip. Now, where the chip was, it looks pretty damn good. Resin filled that in nicely - I just have long cracks now! Do yourself a favor and don't press from the inside!!!!
