10. Yoohe Car Windshield Repair Kit

Best Car Body Repai

The Windshield Repair Kit from Yoohe is a crack repair kit for windshields that includes everything you need to repair cracks, scratches, and chips that are less than 1 inch (25mm) in diameter. This is safe and effective for all laminated windshield problems including star-shaped damage, bullseye cracks, half-moon cracks, cobweb cracks and more.

All materials used in this kit are non-toxic and safe to use. Clean the target area thoroughly before attempting to repair the crack. Apply the resin into the cracks in the glass, apply the cured film, and dry and solidify using ultraviolet light between 5 and 10 minutes.

The resin will harden and you can scrape off the excess with a spatula. This will help minimize the appearance of cracks and help reinforce your windshield so that the crack doesn’t spread and cause more damage. 

Included in the kit is a bracket with 4 suction cups, a 2ml bottle of resin repair fluid, 5 cured films, an injection tube, instructions and a blade.

9. ABN Dent Puller Suction Cup

The 2 inch in diameter Dent Puller Suction Cup from ABN has been engineered for pulling dents out of metal and plastic auto bodies. The suction on this dent puller is capable of lifting up to 10 lbs and will work on small or large dings and dents. Constructed out of durable extra strength rubber and ABS plastic, this dent puller will form a tight seal to most non-porous flat materials.

Thoroughly clean the area before use. We recommend using hot water on the area where the ding or dent needs pulled and then getting a firm grip on the area with the puller. A little soap will help the suction cup get a firm grip once the suction lever is pulled. If the dent has any breaks or fractures, you may not be able to use this puller to perform a repair.

As cheap as this item is, it’s worth trying it out in order to save yourself hundreds of dollars in repairs at your local mechanic. It may take more than one attempt to successfully pull out the dent.

8. Lisle 35260 Plastic Fastener Remover

The Plastic Fastener Remover by Lisle is especially handy when you need to quickly and safely remove plastic fasteners on your car. Most cars use plastic fasteners in order to hold air dams, fender linings, radiator shrouds, weather stripping, and other rubber or plastic parts. This tool will give you the proper leverage you need in order to easily force them out of their secure location. 

It features a red plastic grip handle that provides a non-slip surface and allows you to comfortably grip the tool  and apply the necessary force. In addition, there is a sliding urethane button that will give you some flexibility in applying leverage to remove the fasteners.

Be careful using this tool on any painted surface as the metal will scratch the surface. Use a cloth to protect your underlying material if you are concerned about damaging it.

7. J-B Weld 8267 SteelStik Steel Reinforced Epoxy Putty Stick

The SteelStik Steel Reinforced Epoxy Putty Stick contains 2 oz. (57g) of a hand-mixable non-rusting epoxy putty that will cure into a hardened material stronger than steel. Once the material has been given time to cure, it can be sanded, drilled, ground, machined or filed and then painted.

J-B Weld is a name synonymous with strong-setting epoxy that can be used to repair or fortify breaks, cracks, and fill in gaps in material. This is great for small or big jobs, and is still effective even in extreme environments. This can also be used for brick, concrete, metal, underwater and wet use, plumbing, stripped threads, exhaust systems and more.

This material once mixed will set within 3-5 minutes so be prepared to apply it immediately once you’ve mixed the material. After you’ve covered the target area, let it fully cure for at least 60 minutes and then you will be able to sand it down smooth. After sanding, it will then be ready to paint.
