An apparatus is disclosed for repairing damage to a glass or plastic surface such as a safety glass windshield. The apparatus includes a substantially flat body member made of a flexible or rigid and transparent material. A disposable resilient intermediate member such as a paper product is provided with a generally central cut out region. The intermediate member is glued between the glass surface and the body member forming a cavity in the cut out region defined by the body member, the intermediate member and the glass surface. Access conduit through the body member enables insertion of a repair material into the cavity. A compressor and a vacuum pump are respectively connected by a first and a second valve to the access conduit for subsequently applying alternate vacuum and pressure to force the repair material into the damage in the glass surface. The intermediate member may then be removed from the glass surface. This abstract is a resume of one application, is not a complete discussion of all principles of operation or applications, and is not to be construed as a limitation on the scope of the claimed subject matter.

An apparatus for repairing a damage to a glass surface, comprising in combination: a flat body member having a first and a second surface; said body member being transparent for enabling visual observation of the damage during the repairing process; a disposable resilient intermediate member having a first and a second surface; said intermediate member being a sheet commensurate in size with said flat body member and having a generally central cut out region; means for glueing said first surface of said intermediate member to said glass surface and for glueing said second surface of said intermediate member to said first surface of said body member forming a cavity in said cut out region with said damage located in said cavity; access means in said body member communicating with said cavity for inserting a glass repair material to repair the damage; and; said access means including a conduit extending through said body member having a coupling device for enabling insertion of said repair material through and for enabling application of a varying pressure in the cavity region of said intermediate member.
