Repairing long cracks is achievable but not something we will train you to do. The structural integrity of the vehicle is centred around the strength offered by the glass remaining in situ during a collision. Training room techniques for crack repair on fresh damage can create some impressive results. However in reality we know that in the real world with the introduction of moisture and dirt the integrity of a crack repair is questionable.

Repairing long cracks of 7 inches as an example will not be recommended as future standards change. So if you are looking for training to repair long cracks we do not do that as the practice is now questionable with structural and windscreen mounted technologies needing to be factored in. A training provider who does repair long cracks will not be recognised by an awarding body.

Our insurers would not cover our liability for crack repair training and neither would our awarding body.

If you do have a trainer who still trains you to do crack repair we would recommend that you speak to your insurer about your liability when not working to an approved standard.

Our crack resin is just for star breaks and will in time be changed to avoid any confusion. Our approach is do not repair all, work to the standards and where the standards allow you to repair proceed with the skill your trainer has imparted on you. Ignoring the standards could be at your peril.
