[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Filling it won't work on a chip, a reputable company will tell you that.  Waot until it develops a crack, if it even does then replace the windshield [/quote]

Are u Debbie downer or this is serious genuine info? I need to know before I take action [/quote]

I'm the one that fixed it myself using the RainX product from Amazon.  It takes some time because you have to apply it several times in several steps and use a razor to scrape off excess but it's really not all that hard and the instructions that come with it tell you exactly what to do.  A suction cup creates a vacuum to pull out all the air. You drop some drops of the filler material in and then you wait for it to dry.  You scrape the excess off with the included razor blade.  You can fill a couple more times.  It's best to be used when it's hot because it dries faster (obviously it's cold now so you'll want your car in the sun at least).  You don't have to watch it while it dries.  Just go inside and so something else.  I think I applied it three or four times and did it during the summer.  There's a very tiny dot where it used to be.  If your options are, replace the entire windshield or fill the chip, why not try filling it first?  It's not like you can't still replace the windshield.  You could also have a shop fill it (there are actually mobile services that will come to your house during the day).[/quote]
