New Windshield Long Crack Edge Crack Repair Resin Injector
Understanding How The Windshield Edge Crack Resin Injector Works
Updated - We now have injector seals for the crack resins bottle tips. We no longer use the syringes.
For the Edge area of a long crack windshield repair our new injector syringe pressure injects the edge area of an edge crack directly from the syringe. The edge area is from the edge of the windshield in 4-5 inches, this is where there is installation stress in the glass and the gap of the crack is the widest. Our two windshield crack repair resins used in the edge area are 1600 and 2400.
If you have one of our windshield crack repair kits with the long crack repair tool this injector seal on the bottle tip can be used to slide and inject instead of using our stainless steel injector for the edge area. If you do not have one of our long crack repair kits see the instructions below.
With innjector seal on the bottle tip on the you can see exactly how the windshield repair resin is going into the crack. The bottle tip also leaves a perfect bead on top of the crack for tabbing after you are done injecting. When the bottle is empty you can throw it away. Our 1600 and 2400 edge crack resins will now be available with the injector seal tip.
How To Use The Edge Crack Resin Injector
How to Use - Remove the bottle cap, place the seal on the tip. PLace the seal flush on the crack and hold it down firmly against the glass. Squeeze the bottle lightly and slide down the crack. Starting from the edge of the windshield slide in toward the point until the crack closes up and will no longer easily take edge crack resin. Slide off the crack with the tip still flush against the glass and stop squeezing so you do not spill or waste any resin. Then remove teh seal from the tip of teh bottle by hand and a towel so you do not get resin on your hand, place the cap back on the bottle.
Advantages:
- Easy to use
- Fast
- No filling and refilling
- View of the resin injection
- Pressure injects and leaves a bead of resin on the top of the crack for tabbing
- No cleaning

You will inject the front half of the crack with this tool filled with 400 long crack repair resin. You will use the new injector seal at the edge area of the crack with the edge crack resin bottle.

Step By Step Instructions, Using Edge Crack Windshield Repair Resin Injector
- Drill and tap a bullseye at the point 1/8 in front of the tip so the tip/point of the crack runs into the bullseye.
- Mount the Classic with a liberal amount of petroleum jelly/vaseline on the suction cups a few inches down the crack. Slide it back and forth to lubricate the glass with the vaseline where you anticipate you will be sliding to in the middle of the crack.
- Use 200 or 400 resin in your injector and mount at the drilled hole. Do two cycles of vacuum and pressure and leave the injector on pressure.
- Mount one crack opener about one inch from your injector at the point. If you do not have a crack-opener- they only cost $29.00, an investment that you will profit from after only one crack repair.)
- If you only have one crack opener, lubricate the crack opener suction cups with petroleum jelly in case you need to slide the crack opener a couple of inches. If you have two crack openers place another next to or near the first one.
- Now turn the bolt(s) of the crack opener(s) until you see the 200 or 400 start to enter the crack then stop.
- Now go to the edge and inject the edge crack resin using the injector seal on the bottle tip into the edge area, which is the first 4 or 5 inches.
- Slide off the crack then wipe off the tip with a towel and remove the seal put the cap back on the bottle.
- Now go back to the point and start sliding slowly down the crack keeping resin in front of the injector at all times. Slide until you meet the edge crack resin in the middle of the crack.
- Place a bead of 2400 resin on the top of the crack where needed and cover with the mylar tab or use whitish scotch tape which is made with mylar - see our training videos.
- Remove the crack-openers and cure the injected crack.
- Slice off the cured resin and scotch tape from the surface with your razor blade at a 45 degree.
- Clean the windshield and you are done.Tip -always wipe off vaseline with a dry towel first before spraying glass cleaner.
