The rock chip repair process involves cleaning out the crack in your windshield and removing the air. A resin is then injected between the layers of glass. The process works only for laminated glass such as you find in a windshield, which provides a space to inject the resin. After the resin is inserted, ultraviolet light is focused on the area to harden it. Once the repair is complete, the windshield is as strong as ever.
When you first see a rock chip, get it repaired before it has a chance to spread. If the break in your windshield is smaller than a credit card, the repair should be successful. However, bear in mind that the glass will never appear as smooth as it was before the rock chip repair. The good news is that the appearance will improve by up to 80%, which should be ample to give you good vision. Each repair looks different. The success of car windshield repairs depends on many different factors such as the size of the crack, the location, and the amount of contamination.
A rock chip repair does not work for every little ding. If the windshield is merely pitted and the top layer fails to break all the way through, the resin cannot be inserted. Luckily, these pits are not too unsightly and they will not spread, so your windshield will remain intact.
