Windshield Damage; How Long To Let It Go?

LittleTexas :

We've always had ours repaired asap until DD started getting multiple chips in her windshield. AutoZone sells a windshield repair kit for about $15ish and DH has used it twice to fix rock chips on her car. You'd never know they were there and it looks good as new. If it happens to one of our vehicles again, he'll probably just do that on it.

EddyFree :
always helpful :D

Heathur : Same here - $15 kit from autozone or o'reilly to fix it right away. Still have the original windshield on my 2005 pickup. No cracks / no visible chips.

buffaloglenn :
I'm amazed at how they can make it almost invisible; mine is a tiny 'star' visible from only certain angles, in the sun.

buffaloglenn : The ones he repaired with the kit for DD actually turned out better than some of the repairs we've paid to have done for us. Those kits work surprisingly well when you follow the instructions and apply them correctly.

There is a limit to what the can "repair".
If it's bigger than a quarter and longer than a dollar, they won't do it.
We got hit by rock twice.
One length wise, one sideways.
The problem is that they are one inch from meeting up, then the windshield is no longer safe.
So we are looking for someone other than satellite.
They did a bad job last time.
Anyone know of a decent windshield replacement company?

Furface11 : We used these guys twice - they came to our house snd were about half the price of Safelite. tomballautoglass.com /?gad_source=1&gad_c ampaignid=2142404415 1&gbraid=0AAAAA

There's a guy on the south bound feeder of 45 just south of 99. Klearstar rock chip and firewood. He won't take credit cards. Cash only. Been there forever. Does amazing job with really bad damage.
