anybody had any luck using those chinky windscreen repair kits?

If a repair is possible many insurance policies cover that for a
tenner and no affect on your no-claims bonus. You'll get a
"professional" repair and less argument from the insurance co should
the damage grow requiring a replacement screen.

The professional repair kit gets the resin right into the crack and then
exactly flush with the surface afterwards. You can just about see the
slight difference in the refractive index if you look carefully.

Unlike paint chips it isn't really DIY territory unless you like having
your windscreen fail as a shower of glass fragments whilst at speed.
