Title: Windshield Repair/Replacement Services
Post by: enits on March 07, 2010, 07:16:47 PM
Got any recommendations for this type of service? 

I've heard of Robinson Glass.  Have you guys used them before? 

My car has 2 small cracks and my significantother has a long crack (LOL!).  I'm hoping mine can be repaired.  I think the other is beyond repair and will need to be replaced. 

Thanks!!!

I used Glass Doctor to fix a couple of "stars" about 7 or 8 years ago and those repairs are still good on that vehicle.  Once it grows to a crack, there's not much that can be done other than replacement.

I have used Robinson Glass on several cars.  I've been happy with the service and results.

They all seem to be the same, the service works, I never had a repaired "Bullseye" turn into a crack. Once a crack starts it's too late. They do say that once a small chip or bullseye is fixed you should never take the windsheild out and  reuse it because the repair may not hold then and it will likely crack in time. :-X

Robinson.

About 8 or 10 in last 30 years.  I think the first one was the year after they started in 1979, if I remember right.
Good work.
