How can I (temporarily) stop a windshield crack from getting bigger?
 
A stupid rock chipped my windshield yesterday and a small crack emerged...which is now a large crack. It keeps getting bigger. I can't take it to get fixed until at least Tuesday -- in the meantime what can I do to keep it from getting even bigger?

hey i got one of these too... i heard theres something that you can inject in the crack to stop it
 
luckily for me, the crack is way in the bottom corner, out of sight.

It shouldent grow too much if at all in just 2 days.
 
just get it fixed asap

I wouldn't worry about it, just get it replaced
 
laminated safety glass will hold together under extreme stress, you should be fine until Tuesday, just don't do any dancing on it

Yeah, if you're gonna get busy on the hood, don't lean up against the glass. ;)

Dont worry, it shouldn't get much bigger. Just leave it alone till Tuesday.

Easy, drill a small hole in the glass at the ends of the crack.

Drive a 5 lb spike through it, just like the Liberty bell.
