UFIXIT DIY Tips, News & How To Guides

A chipped car windscreen being repaired with the focus on whether windscreen repairs are covered by insurance.
Are Windscreen Repairs Covered By Insurance?
Car insurance in Australia may cover windscreen repairs, depending on your insurer, policy, and level of cover. Some comprehensive policies include windscreen cover, while others offer it as an optional extra. Before making a claim, check what your policy covers, whether an excess applies, and whether you can simply repair the damage instead. Does car insurance cover windscreen chip repairs? It can. Some policies cover windscreen chips and cracks, while others may only provide cover if you have added optional windscreen or glass cover. Check your Product Disclosure Statement (PDS) or contact your insurer to find out: Whether windscreen repairs and replacements are covered Whether an excess applies Whether there are limits on claims Whether you need to use an approved repairer Do you pay an excess for windscreen repair? It depends on your policy. Some insurers offer windscreen repairs with no or a reduced excess, while others may require you to pay an excess. If an excess does apply, it’s worth comparing the cost with repairing the damage yourself. Is it worth claiming insurance for a windscreen chip? Not always. The UFIXIT Windscreen Repair Kit costs under $35 and can complete up to five repairs. It can permanently repair common windscreen damage including chips, bullseyes, star cracks and cracks up to 30cm. For repairable damage, that may be a much simpler and more affordable option than making an insurance claim. Can I repair a windscreen chip myself? Yes. The Australian owned UFIXIT Windscreen Repair Kit is designed for DIY windscreen repair and creates a permanent repair. UFIXIT resin penetrates the damaged area before curing and strengthening the repair, helping stop the chip or crack from spreading. Repairing damage early can also help prevent a small chip from developing into a larger crack that may eventually require windscreen replacement. Repair or replace? For most common windscreen chip and crack damage, replacement isn’t necessary. UFIXIT can permanently repair chips, bullseyes, star cracks and cracks up to 30cm, meaning many damaged windscreens can be repaired rather than replaced. Repairing with UFIXIT allows you to keep your original factory fitted windscreen in place, save money and avoid unnecessarily sending a repairable windscreen to waste. So, are windscreen repairs covered by insurance? They can be, but always check your individual policy first. Before making a claim or replacing your windscreen, check whether the damage can be repaired with UFIXIT instead. Got a chip or crack? Repair, don’t replace with UFIXIT.

If you've discovered a chip in your windscreen, here are six things you need to know about windscreen chip repair including when to fix it, how permanent the repair is, and why repairing can be better than replacing. 1. How soon should you repair a windscreen chip? The sooner, the better. Changes in temperature, vibration and everyday driving can all cause windscreen damage to spread. Repairing a windscreen chip with UFIXIT as soon as you notice it can help stop a small chip from becoming a larger crack that may eventually require a full windscreen replacement.

Windscreen damage isn't limited to tiny stone chips. The UFIXIT Windscreen Repair Kit can permanently fix many common types of windscreen damage, including: Chips Bullseyes Star cracks Cracks up to 30cm long So before assuming a damaged windscreen needs replacing, check whether it can be repaired first. 3. Is a windscreen chip repair permanent? Yes. When repaired correctly with the UFIXIT Windscreen Repair Kit, the repair is permanent. UFIXIT's specially formulated resin penetrates the damaged area of the windscreen before curing and strengthening the repair.

Will the damage disappear after repair? Repairing a windscreen chip with UFIXIT can dramatically improve the appearance of the damage, although some evidence of the original chip may remain. The primary purpose of this type of repair is to fill and strengthen the damaged area and stop the damage from spreading. The final appearance can vary depending on the size, type and age of the damage, which is another reason to repair a chip as soon as possible. 5. How much does windscreen chip repair cost?

There are some compelling reasons to repair rather than unnecessarily replace your windscreen. Repairing with UFIXIT allows you to keep your original factory fitted windscreen in place, maintain its integrity and avoid sending an otherwise repairable windscreen to waste. Windscreens can be difficult and expensive to recycle, with limited recycling options available. Repairing rather than replacing can help extend the life of your existing windscreen and keep more windscreens out of landfill. Frequently asked questions Can I repair a windscreen chip myself? Yes. The UFIXIT Windscreen Repair Kit is designed to make this DIY process easy to complete at home. Simply follow the instructions supplied with the kit or scan the QR code for step by step guidance.

Can you repair a cracked windscreen? Yes. UFIXIT isn't only designed for chip damage. The UFIXIT Windscreen Repair Kit can also permanently repair windscreen cracks. What happens if you don't fix a windscreen chip? Leaving a windscreen chip untreated can allow the damage to spread.

Can Windscreens Be Recycled?
Can Windscreens Be Recycled?
Technically, yes. However, windscreen recycling isn’t as simple or widely available as standard glass recycling. Because manufacturers build windscreens from laminated glass bonded to a plastic interlayer, recycling requires specialist processing that can be costly and difficult to access. As a result, many replaced windscreens end up in landfill. When you can repair a damaged windscreen, doing so offers a far better environmental choice. Why Is Windscreen Recycling Difficult? Unlike standard bottles and jars, vehicle glass features two layers of glass bonded around a strong plastic interlayer. This construction provides essential safety, but processing facilities must separate these materials before recycling can occur. Few facilities feature the equipment required to process laminated glass. Additionally, transport and separation costs make full recycling expensive. While facilities can recycle a windscreen, local services may not always process it. Repair Your Windscreen Instead of Replacing It You can repair most common glass damage before it spreads, including: Surface chips and bullseyes Star damage Cracks up to 30cm long Repairing keeps your original factory-fitted windscreen in place to preserve your vehicle’s structural integrity. A quality resin repair fills and bonds the damaged area, restoring strength instantly. This simple step avoids manufacturing a replacement, paying for transport, and sending old glass to landfill. Keep Windscreens Out of Landfill With UFIXIT The Australian owned UFIXIT Windscreen Repair Kit makes it easy to permanently repair common windscreen damage yourself. Each kit can complete up to five repairs and is designed specifically to perform in Australia’s harsh conditions. Repair chips, bullseyes, star damage and cracks up to 30cm before they spread and turn into a replacement. When replacement really is necessary, windscreen recycling is the better option where available. But when your windscreen can be repaired, the greener choice is simple: Repair, don’t replace. Keep your windscreen on the road and out of landfill with UFIXIT. Available at Supercheap Auto, Repco, Autobarn, Amazon and leading automotive accessory retailers across Australia.

Using the UFIXIT repair kit to fix a windscreen chip on a car
How to Fix a Windscreen Chip
If you’re wondering how to fix a windscreen chip, the good news is that many chips can be permanently repaired at home using the right repair kit. Repairing a windscreen chip early helps restore the strength of your windscreen, improves its appearance and helps prevent the damage from spreading into a larger crack. The UFIXIT Windscreen Repair Kit has been specifically designed for Australian conditions, making it easy to permanently repair chips, bullseyes, star cracks and cracks without replacing your entire windscreen. Available from Supercheap Auto, Repco, Autobarn, Amazon, or ask for UFIXIT at your local auto accessory store. Can you fix a windscreen chip yourself? Yes. Many windscreen chips can be successfully repaired at home using a quality windscreen repair kit. The key is repairing the damage as soon as possible before dirt, moisture, road vibrations and temperature changes cause the damage to spread. A properly completed repair restores the structural strength of the windscreen while significantly improving the appearance of the damage. What type of windscreen damage can be repaired? Before learning how to fix a windscreen chip, it’s important to identify the type of damage. Chips and bullseyes These appear as circular impacts or star shaped chips where the damage is trapped between the laminated layers of the windscreen. This type of damage is repaired using the UFIXIT pressure injection system, which forces specialised resin deep into the damaged area to completely fill the break. Cracks and star cracks Surface cracks and longer cracks require a different repair technique. Rather than using the applicator, the resin is applied directly into the crack to fill the damage. This guide explains how to fix a windscreen chip and bullseye damage using the UFIXIT applicator system. What you’ll need Before you begin, you’ll need: UFIXIT Windscreen Repair Kit Clean paper towel or soft cloth A shaded area such as a garage or carport Avoid repairing your windscreen in direct sunlight, as the resin begins curing when exposed to UV light. How to Fix a Windscreen Chip in 9 Simple Steps Step 1. Clean the area Use a clean, dry cloth to wipe around the damaged area. However, glass cleaner can be used around the windscreen, but avoid spraying chemicals directly into the chip, as contamination may affect the quality of the repair. Step 2. Position the applicator Place the applicator base over the impact point, ensuring the rubber seal is centred directly above the chip. Screw the resin chamber into the applicator until the rubber seal gently contacts the windscreen. Step 3. Add the resin Place 4 to 5 drops of UFIXIT repair resin into the resin chamber. Step 4. Inject the resin Slowly screw the pressure driver into the chamber. This creates pressure, forcing resin deep into every part of the damage while removing trapped air. Leave the pressure applied for 10 to 15 minutes. Step 5. Release the pressure Remove the pressure driver to allow any remaining trapped air to escape. Repeat the pressure cycle until the damage appears completely filled and clear. Most repairs take around 45 to 60 minutes, depending on the severity of the chip. Step 6. Apply the curing strip Remove the applicator. Place one additional drop of resin onto the impact point before laying the curing strip over the repair. Do not press on the curing strip. Step 7. Cure the repair Move the vehicle into direct sunlight. The UV light cures the resin in approximately 5 to 10 minutes, even on lightly overcast days. Step 8. Remove excess resin Peel away the curing strip. Using the supplied razor blade held at 90 degrees, carefully scrape away any excess hardened resin until the surface is smooth. Step 9. Finish the repair Wipe the windscreen clean with a soft cloth. Your repair is now complete. The structural strength of the windscreen has been restored and the original damage has been permanently repaired, helping prevent it from spreading any further.Watch our repair video here Frequently Asked Questions How long does it take to fix a windscreen chip? Most windscreen chip repairs take around 45 to 60 minutes, including the resin curing time. The exact time depends on the type and severity of the damage. Can you still see a repaired windscreen chip? A quality repair will usually make the damage far less noticeable, although a faint mark may remain depending on the size and type of the original chip. Is it better to repair a windscreen chip than replace the windscreen? If the damage can be repaired, fixing a windscreen chip is usually quicker and more affordable than replacing the entire windscreen. Repairing it early also helps retain your original factory fitted windscreen. Why choose the UFIXIT Windscreen Repair Kit? The UFIXIT Windscreen Repair Kit includes everything you need to complete multiple permanent repairs at home. Its specialised pressure injection system forces resin deep into the damage, helping restore the structural strength of the windscreen while significantly improving the appearance of the repair.

Does Repairing a Windscreen Chip Affect Resale Value?
Does Repairing a Windscreen Chip Affect Resale Value?
If you are thinking about selling or trading in your vehicle, you may be wondering whether repairing a windscreen chip affects its resale value. The short answer is yes, fixing a windscreen chip protects your vehicle's resale value and prevents buyers or dealers from lowering their trade in offer. With the UFIXIT Windscreen Repair Kit, you can permanently repair chips, bullseyes, star cracks, and cracks before they spread. Specifically, UFIXIT is available at Supercheap Auto, Repco, Autobarn, Amazon, or your local auto accessory store. Does a Chipped Windscreen Reduce Resale Value? Yes, a chipped windscreen can directly reduce your car's resale and trade in value. When buyers or dealership appraisers inspect a vehicle, a visible chip or crack immediately signals potential future costs. For instance, dealers often deduct the full cost of a windscreen replacement ($300 to $1,000+) from their trade in offer, even if the damage only requires a simple $34 repair kit. In addition, an unrepaired chip in the driver’s line of sight can cause the vehicle to fail a Roadworthy Certificate (RWC) inspection. Therefore, repairing the chip beforehand removes a major bargaining chip for buyers and ensures a smoother sale. Is a Repaired Windscreen Better Than a Damaged One? In almost every case, yes. A professionally repaired windscreen is far better for resale than leaving a chip untreated. A quality windscreen repair fills the damaged area with a specialized resin, restoring the structural integrity of the glass and making the damage up to 80–90% less visible. Although a slight mark may remain depending on the severity of the impact, a repaired chip proves to prospective buyers that the vehicle has been well cared for. Furthermore, it reassures the buyer that the crack will not suddenly spread across the glass during their test drive. Should You Repair a Windscreen Chip Before Selling Your Car? If the damage is smaller than a 50 cent coin, repairing the chip before listing your car for sale is one of the highest ROI fixes you can make. For example, taking 20 minutes to repair windscreen damage before listing your car delivers key benefits: Protects Your Asking Price: Prevents buyers from negotiating hundreds of dollars off the price. Passes Safety Inspections: Helps ensure your vehicle passes its Roadworthy Certificate (RWC) or safety inspection without delay. Improves Curb Appeal: Keeps the glass looking clean and well maintained in photos and in person viewings. Prevents Total Replacement: Stops minor chips from expanding into full length splits that require complete glass replacement. Repair It Before It Spreads In addition, road vibrations, speed bumps, and sudden temperature shifts can instantly turn a small chip into an unrepairable split. As a result, repairing windscreen damage as soon as you notice it is always the most cost effective decision. The UFIXIT Windscreen Repair Kit delivers permanent repairs using professional grade resin specifically formulated for Australia’s harsh climate. Specifically, as Australia’s original Australian owned windscreen repair kit, it is trusted by thousands of drivers to keep original factory fitted glass on the road.

Windscreen Repair vs Replacement: Which Is Cheaper?
A chip or crack in your windscreen causes immediate worry. Does your car need a quick repair or a total replacement? In most cases, a simple repair costs significantly less than a replacement. A DIY kit costs under $35. In contrast, installing a new windscreen can cost anywhere from $300 to $1,200. Fixing the damage early prevents cracks from spreading. This simple step saves you hundreds of dollars. Is Windscreen Repair Cheaper Than Replacement? Yes, repairing your glass is almost always the more affordable choice. Replacing a windscreen requires extra labor and materials. Technicians must remove the damaged glass, fit a new screen, and apply new seals. Furthermore, modern cars feature safety cameras and rain sensors behind the glass. These systems need expensive electronic recalibration during a glass swap. Because of these added steps, replacements cost significantly more money. In contrast, a repair restores the damaged area directly. You inject specialized resin into the chip or crack. This resin bonds the laminated glass back together and restores strength. It stops the damage from spreading permanently. The Australian owned UFIXIT Windscreen Repair Kit costs only $33.99. One kit provides enough resin for up to five separate repairs. When Can You Repair a Windscreen? The UFIXIT Windscreen Repair Kit permanently fixes chips, bullseyes, and star cracks. It even fixes cracks up to 300 mm long. However, you should fix the damage as soon as possible. Waiting too long allows dirt and moisture to enter the crack. Contaminants make a clean fix much harder to achieve. When Does a Windscreen Need Replacement? Your vehicle requires a full replacement if the damage threatens driver safety. For instance, extensive structural damage or deep cracks penetrating both glass layers require new glass. Additionally, cracks running directly along the outer edge can weaken the overall structure. A crack in the driver line of sight can also fail state roadworthy tests. Always check damage immediately before road vibrations cause further cracking. Why Repairing Early Saves Money A small chip naturally weakens your entire windscreen. Everyday driving, speed bumps, and temperature changes cause minor damage to split open. Fixing the glass early gives you major advantages: Avoid expensive windscreen replacement bills. Keep your car roadworthy and pass safety checks. Retain the original factory seal around your window frame. Prevent small stone impacts from ruining your glass. Can You Repair a Windscreen Yourself? Yes, you can easily repair common windscreen damage at home. The UFIXIT Windscreen Repair Kit fixes chips and cracks up to 300 mm. Each kit contains enough professional grade resin for multiple uses. The resin cures naturally in direct sunlight, creating a clear and permanent bond. Choose UFIXIT Windscreen repair is always the cheaper option when you act early. Fixing a chip saves you hundreds of dollars and avoids replacement hassles. Choose the original Australian owned UFIXIT Windscreen Repair Kit. We formulated it specifically for Australia harsh conditions. Thousands of Australian drivers trust UFIXIT to keep their vehicles safe. Repair, don't replace.

Car with a cracked windscreen driving on an Australian road.
Is It Illegal to Drive With a Cracked Windscreen in Australia?
Driving with a cracked windscreen in Australia can be illegal depending on the crack's size, location, and severity. Under Australian Road Rules and state roadworthiness regulations, you cannot legally drive a vehicle if damage impairs the driver's view or compromises the vehicle’s structural safety. If police or transport inspectors deem your windscreen unsafe, you risk receiving a vehicle defect notice (grounding your car), fines, or failing your annual safety inspection (such as an NSW Pink Slip). Quick Guide: When Is It Illegal to Drive With a Cracked Windscreen in Australia? While exact enforcement varies slightly between states, Australian vehicle standards share universal thresholds for unroadworthiness: Damage Location Legal Threshold / Unroadworthy Criteria Driver’s Line of Sight (Critical Vision Area) Any crack, chip, or bullseye that impairs vision or is larger than 16mm. Edge of the Windscreen Any crack extending more than 75mm from the outer edge. Hairline Cracks Cracks longer than 30mm to 150mm (depending on state/zone). Glass Depth Any damage penetrating more than one layer of the laminated safety glass. ⚠️ Important Safety Note: Modern vehicles rely on the windscreen for up to 30% of structural roof strength during a rollover, and as a backstop for front passenger airbag deployment. A cracked windscreen seriously compromises this safety net. Windscreen Laws by Australian State Each state and territory sets its own roadworthiness rules. If you would like to review official government guidelines directly: New South Wales (NSW): Under Transport for NSW Safety Standards, a vehicle will fail a safety check if there are more than two defects on the driver's side, including hairline cracks over 30mm, edge cracks over 75mm, or chips over 16mm. Victoria: VicRoads Vehicle Standards classify any crack or chip in the area swept by the windscreen wipers as unroadworthy if it distorts vision, penetrates more than one layer of glass, or exceeds 16mm in diameter. Queensland: The Queensland Department of Transport and Main Roads (TMR) strictly enforces vision impairment rules. Any crack larger than 150mm anywhere on the glass or chips larger than 16mm in the wiper area will trigger a defect notice. Other States & Territories: Look up your relevant state transport authority website (such as South Australia's DIT or Western Australia's DoT) for local vehicle inspection guidelines. Penalties for Driving with an Unsafe Windscreen If you are pulled over by police with an illegal crack, you may face: Defect Notices (Yellow Stickers): Requiring you to repair the glass and pass a re inspection within a set timeframe. Fines & Demerit Points: Ranging from $110 to over $400 depending on the state and severity. Voided Insurance Claims: If you are involved in an accident with an unroadworthy vehicle, your insurer may deny your claim. Repair Windscreen Damage Before It Spreads Daily driving hazards like potholes, speed bumps, and extreme temperature shifts (like hot summer sun or cold winter defrosters) cause minor chips to suddenly expand across the entire glass. Acting quickly stops a small chip from turning into an illegal crack, saving you hundreds of dollars on a full windscreen replacement. The DIY Solution: UFIXIT Windscreen Repair Kit Save your original factory fitted windscreen and avoid expensive replacements with the UFIXIT Windscreen Repair Kit: Versatile Repairs: Handles chips, bullseyes, star cracks, and cracks. Multilple Repairs: Up to 5 permanent repairs per kit, making it an essential addition to your glovebox.

Don't wait for a small chip to become a legal or safety issue. Keep a UFIXIT Repair Kit in your glovebox, or explore our complete range of UFIXIT DIY Automotive Products to keep your vehicle safe and roadworthy! Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) Can I drive with a cracked windscreen on the passenger side? Yes, provided the crack does not extend into the driver’s line of sight, does not reach the outer edge, and does not compromise the structural integrity of the laminated glass. However, it should still be repaired quickly to prevent spreading. Will a small chip pass a roadworthy inspection? A small chip (under 16mm) outside the driver's direct line of sight will usually pass an inspection. However, if it has developed legs or spider cracks, it may fail.  Repair windscreen damage before it spreads Now you know more about whether it is illegal to drive with a cracked windscreen, make sure you don't wait for a small chip to become a crack or a legal or safety issue.
