Stone chip - very small - does it require repair?
 
Got my windshield chipped along hwy 91 but its very small.

Should I bother with a quickie fix?

You should be alright, but I would personally fill it just in case.

You can just touch it up or just keep a coat of wax on the area. That will help keep it from rusting.

Hey 911, it's a windshield chip. Ill source out a DIY repair kit.

a basement does not get flooded in a day. it starts with a small leak that no one cares to fix.

At least put a drop of crazy glue on it. I would fix it because there is potential for a crack to develop and spread. Something that costs 20$ to fix could end up costing you 500$... I had a smaller chip on my previous car and ended up having to replace the windshield..

I put a small drop of super glue on it...should be fine and will see if it holds as this is my daily driver.

i went to speedy and was $92! it only took like 10-15 mins. as long as you own the car, that area where they filled in the resin is life warranty.

i had something same, had it for 3-4 years. no issues.
