Didn't realize this video randomly shot up in views so thank you everyone!
I'm just going to comment this here instead of replying to everyone:
1. This video is part joke/part review on an obvious snake oil product. Window repair is absolutely a thing, but you're not going to get that from a cheap off brand kit from Amazon
2. The cracks on the windshield were well within the supposed ability of repair on the kit. It was obviously never going to fix cracks that bad, but the kit advertised that
3. I only followed the instructions the kit gave me, a true review going in blind with only what the kit provides and the information the kit provides. Applying pressure from the back would have probably absolutely helped like some of you have suggested, but the kit instructions said nothing of the sort (hard to access the windshield from inside at that point anyways, the car was fully caged and doors were chained shut)
4. This was for my race car because safety tech said the cracks got too big, I already knew I'd have to take the windshield out so figured I'd try this to see if it could hide the cracks for one race at least (bad of me I know) before I switched from glass windshield to metal mesh screen

Usually I get pissed off when people waste 7 minutes of my time, but you were so funny that I kept cracking up the whole time, so I gave you a thumbs up and shared your video to a few of my friends

Multi surface cleaner you may as well sprayed it with wd 40, all glass you clean with alcohol goes for phone screen repairs too. You apply in the shade, , apply film you rub in liquid into the crack through the film to force liquid into the cracks, move car to direct sunlight for UV, not a lot of UV happening in the shade. It never had a shot the moment multi surface cleaner was used it contains "Lauryl Polyglucose" which is made from coconut and palm oil. The reason why multi surface cleaner is safe on wood.

I’ve tried it. Applying it with the same method you did. In the sunlight with the plastic cover and it still barely got the scratch out of my windshield on my car. So yeah I agree with you man

[UKCP-UK]

Very funny, 'its shit, don't buy it'. Best kind of review, straight to the point 👍

[deejaywats]

The steps were cool, thanks man for saving my money

[mooklaathegreat]

Along with what everyone else here said, the real point of this type of repair isn't to make the glass look new again, It's to stop the crack from spreading further every time you hit a bump. If used correctly IE enough sunlight or a UV gun, proper alcohol cleaning, Pressure inside of car on glass and such it will work to make cracks look at least a little better, but more important It will stop the crack from growing..

[anvarts]

Yeah. You should have read the instructions, INCLUDING the steps 1 and 4, and perhaps recalled school physics on figuring the strength of UV light... Because you first filled your cracks with liquid cleaner and dirt, and then wanted the glue to get in there? And then you didn't do step 4 - slightly pressing on the glass from the inside to let the glue get sucked into the crack... Then you were did not expose the repair to strong enough UV light (the Sun was behind the car and setting, while it should have been in front or above the car, to provide sufficient UV radiation). Having said that: perhaps your kit was useless anyway. We'll never know.

When it comes to understanding the assignment, 😂😂

[TruthDefender]

You cannot just apply it on the surface. Pressure is needed to press this liquid inside the crack. Also they do this in full sun because of UV

I’m not a rocket scientist, but I can clearly hear he’s digging the blade back into the crack. The idea is to straddle the crack with the razor blade as to not let the razor dig into the crack.

As A Repair Technician, You’ve done everything wrong possible on this windshield 😮those lines will for sure disappear if you knew what you were doing. “ If I did it wrong” your right don’t judge this product, this product will work done the correct way!

[lnjo]

Merci pour cette vidéo, j'avais justement l'intention d'acheter ce produit sur Amazon, grâce à vous j'évite de me faire avoir.
👍👍👍

You suppose to run the blade across the film to get the resin into the cracks. Not sure if the results would be any better in your case. If it doesn’t get rid of the cracks at least it might prevent the cracks from getting worse

[avromweisz]

You are one funny guy. Yo will probably do quite well doing some more funny review videos

[MikkoRantalainen]

With such a huge cracks, no magic will help and you have to replace the glass. The common guideline for this kind of repair kits is that the whole visible damage, including the cracks, must be small enough to fit under the biggest coin in your pocket. Anything bigger than that, the changes of getting nice results is slim to none.

[knowsmuch]

Let me simplify the issue. Glass is a replacement item. It’s much better just to spend and replace. Currently I’m witnessing a fill that fails a month down the road. Now the issue is how much to replace.

[jimmythebudgetbuilder]

You where supposed to put pressure on the inside of the windshield to open the crack up, that’s how you get it inside the crack otherwise your just putting it over it then you scrape it off and it’s back to square one

[viclotorto]

This product worked great for me, not as good of an applicator though as the rain x kit. You really have to push the crack open from the back side of the window gently so it fills the crack. Unfortunately when I did I made the crack one inch larger and had to use a drill bit to relieve the pressure and it stoped cracking when I pushed hard against the glass . Then I filled the self inflicted chip. You can barley see the crack because the resin filled the crack most of the way. I tried to fill a crack without pushing from the backside of the windshield and the resin just wouldn’t fill the crack & didn’t help . I would buy the repair kit again for $12 . It costs me $12. If I had to spend $18 I’d buy it from the store in name brand that starts w a P ends w a Tex . Overall I’m happy but I bought a rain kit w X applicator for filling the crack that I couldn’t fill myself by pushing the back of the window. It’s best to use the rain X applicator that injects resin in the crack . I used the syringe that came with it to fill the cracks I made and when it filled them it always filled 1/2in of the crack so I know it’s working properly. It’s probably the same resin in all the kits. And if it gets on your skin it burns if you leave it

[DonCatherman]

That work good for chips..not so much for big crack's...
