[net.auto] Car windshield repair

wagner@uw-june (Dave Wagner) (09/04/85)

Recently I had the misfortune of having my car windshield cracked by a small
rock thrown up from the road.  The crack is star-shaped, and about 1" across.
My insurance company would like me to have the windshield repaired rather than
replaced, naturally (as incentive they offer to waive the $100 deductible).
The firm that does the repair is called Novus
Windshield Repair; I don't know if they are strictly local or a franchise.

My question is, has anyone had their windshield repaired with acrylic resin?
How does it look after it is done?  

Please e-mail replies, thanks.
