Have you ever been driving along, minding your business, when a piece of rock or debris comes flying in out of nowhere and chips or cracks your windshield? All it takes is one small pebble to cause a whole lot of damage. Anyone who has ever had to replace an entire windshield knows just the extent of that damage.
Fortunately, we are here to make sure that doesn’t happen to you! By taking the time to fix the smaller cracks and chips before they get worse, you can avoid having to replace the whole windshield. Youtuber Chris Fix offers the best advice for chips or cracks: do not procrastinate.
To get started, you’ll need a flat, yellow square, paper towels, a safety razor, scissors, a syringe, resin, a pedestal, a sticky tab, a pin, a cloth, and some rubbing alcohol.
These items can all be purchased separately or you can purchase a windshield repair kit (Chris showcases his specific recommendation in the video!).
By taking a proactive approach to your cracked and/or chipped windshield, you can save yourself a sizable amount of money on repairs. After all, who has that kind of money laying around to spend on a new windshield? There’s a reason why people tend to avoid repairs of this nature at all costs.
