Just got rolled.
What a waste of money.
I had two small chips on the wifes windscreen that i thought better get fixed.
Windscreens Obrien came out to do their injection and they dont look much better.
They were about a 5 cent piece in diameter and now they are 1/2 that size but still easily viewable in eye sight of the road.
Those adds are full of it. You know the adds where they show a 20c piece crack and it ends up like a pin prick
What a joke!
It cost me $130 for this and I couldve just got a brand new windscreen for around that and fitted.
It wouldnt pass a roady, no way!

My trucks got comprehensive insurance (Club Policy) and from memory, I get one free windscreen a year for an extra $60-$65. When I put in a claim (no paperwork, and all done over the phone) I just have to remember what time/date it happened, what road I was on and how it happened. May be something to consider.

I think you can buy a windscreen DIY repair kit for around $30 from most of the car shops. Its a similar method of repair of using a resin injection
