Yes every company that fixes stone chips.

Call your car insurance. They usually do it free.

Lets see what the forum comes back with. Is it a guide you need of best tips etc or just a Y or N answer

I have years ago, so not really helpful, it was poor and probably so was I .


If a screen company does it I imagine it makes life a lot easier.

They vacuum out the crack which then means the fluid gets pulled back in, which is why their repairs come out almost invisible

just wanted to know if its worth trying

post a pic of the chip. best to do when the chip is fresh as otherwise dirt gets inside and you always see it.
A clean chip is almost invisible

Yes mate. Done it 3x now. Works really well, the type with the little vacuum pump is the best. I get them off Amazon for about £12.

this is where im at , a mate of mine opened the door on my ghibli , when he closed it the drop down was in two minds and put the glass up hitting the chrome trim and it cracked , its laminated so only the outer layer has cracked , a new one is £225 so looking at options

 

[daibevan]

Sounds like £12 is worth a try?

Yes give it ago Bembo if you use your insurance that means you would have had a claim even though the repair was free. I found that out from my insurance broker friend

 

[mioba]

so its a crack not a chip.?

 

[bembo449]

yes its cracked the outer layer
