If you’ve noticed a small chip on your windscreen, don’t ignore it, getting it repaired early can save you from needing a full replacement. At Autoglass Warehouse, we specialise in fast, professional stone chip repairs that restore your windscreen’s strength and clarity.
What Size Can Be Repaired?
At Autoglass Warehouse, we can repair stone chips that are:
-
Smaller than a $2 coin
-
Has not been repaired or filled before
-
Not part of a long crack that has spread across the glass
If the chip meets these conditions, we can usually repair it quickly and affordably, starting from just $75.
The Stone Chip Repair Process at Autoglass Warehouse
Here’s what you can expect when you bring your vehicle to Autoglass Warehouse:
1. Initial assessment
Our technicians will inspect the size, location, and depth of the chip. We’ll determine if the chip is safe to repair or if a full windscreen replacement is needed.
2. Cleaning the chip
We clean the damaged area to remove any loose glass, dirt, or moisture. This is an important step to ensure the resin bonds properly to the glass.
3. Injecting the resin
Using specialised tools, we inject a high-quality resin into the chip. This resin fills the damaged area and restores the structural integrity of the windscreen.
4. Curing with UV light
The resin is cured using a UV light, which hardens it and seals the chip completely.
5. Polishing the surface
The last step is polishing the repaired area to improve clarity and make it as unnoticeable as possible.
Why Repair Instead of Replace?
-
It’s faster and cheaper than a full replacement
-
Prevents the chip from spreading into a crack
-
Maintains your windscreen’s factory seal
-
Better for the environment, no need to dispose of the old glass
