Rock Chip Protection Can Protect You From A Cracked Windshield

Posted by nikguard on July 31st, 2017

Imagine you are driving peacefully when all of a sudden you hear a BANG and see that a rock has chipped your windshield! Now before you start panicking about how much the windshield repair will cost you, here is some good news for you: rock chip protection done by yourself is possible.

But of course, before you embark on this little DIY project of yours, you need to make certain that:

  • In order for you to do a rock chip protection by yourself, you need to inspect that the rock chip is smaller or about the size of a quarter. Anything more than that should be taken to a professional for repair or replacement.
  • The crack is less than two inches long in order for you to repair it by yourself.
  • If the cracks are spidery, then you have to take it to a professional and have the windshield replaced.

It is important to remember that repairing a rock chip is important in order to avoid any danger that could incur as a result of a chipped/broken windshield. Not only does a windshield help in protecting the driver and other occupants of the car from debris and other elements, it also is essential in contributing towards the structural integrity of your vehicle.
