Some nut with a lawn mower put a chip in my windshield. Its not all that big. Just enough you can feel it. Don't really see it unless your looking right at it.
I know where to look and makes me sad. Anything out there to make it go away?

there are some glass comanies that can get rid of small glass chips. they fill and buff the glass it leaves a small mark still but it looks beter plus it will stop it from spiderwebbing. do a search on yahoo for glass repair.
i had a rock chip in my window and i had to get that fixed right away...i live in Chicago and we have cold winters so that small crack would've spiderwebbed before long...there's this sealant type stuff i used to cover it up but you'll always notice it there unless you get a new windshield =(

The trick is to keep any and all debris out of the crater until it gets repaired. Place a piece of adhesive tape over the injury until you can get it to a repairer.
Look on the bright side, now you can tell people your car is chipped! "p
