    Default Chipped Windscreen

    So Autoglass are here and they cant sort my windscreen, but spoke to someone last week and they were going to do it.

    there's one in my screen, a little bullet hole type one. i got autoglass to look at it, but similar thing, the guy said it had been done once. he said he could put a bit more resin in the hole as it wears away [?], just to make it look better and not wear the wiper blade. said replacement was the complete answer. i let him fill the hole a little and i just ignore it now, it hasn't got worse or anything.

    to be honest the guy was probably covering his own back by not filling it again cause in a few weeks if all goes wrong who you going to call and complain to

    i wouldnt have filled it either if i thought it wasnt going to last and better to pay the £75 now than wait till it goes completely on the motorway doing 70mph and god knows what would happen
