- Chips smaller than a quarter - These are the easiest to repair effectively
- Cracks less than 12 inches long - Shorter cracks can be fully restored
- Damage not in driver's line of sight - Important for maintaining clear vision
- No multiple fractures - Single point of impact repairs best
- Damage hasn't reached the edge - Edge damage typically requires replacement
- Windshield intact and secure - Glass must be properly seated
💡 Pro Tip
Address chips and cracks immediately! Small damage can spread quickly due to temperature changes and road vibrations, potentially requiring full replacement if left untreated.
