A contractor showed me how to fix dents in granite with superglue. It’s totally clear. The trick is to scrape it with a razor blade at a 90 degree angle (strait horizontal). The imperfections become nearly invisible.
- MisterTea 4mo agoI've been told this is a cheap way to fix small windshield cracks. Never tried it but sounds like it would work for the small spider sized and shaped cracks from small rock impacts.
- singleshot_ 4mo agoThe expensive way is superglue plus a little suction cup to evacuate the air, and a razor blade.
- tjohns 4mo agoThis is basically what the glass repair kits sold at auto parts stores are. (They also include a suction cup with syringe, to vacuum any air bubbles out.)
- coryrc 4mo agoAnd, bringing this topic full circle, the chemical in those kits is methyl methacrylate!
- dlcarrier 4mo agoThe rule of thumb is that if the damage fits under a US quarter, it'll work for sure, and if it fits under a dollar bill, it's worth a try.
- dlcarrier 4mo agoThis is also how glass chip repair works. If the polymer has a close enough index of refraction to the glass, it's invisible.
