How can I fix my cracked glass table top?
Hello, I have a glass tabletop in my living room. My kid was playing with a ball and he drops it on the table now there is a big crack on the glass. I heard about some product that could undo the crack or something but I am not sure. Can anyone guide me? Please

Here is a link to Amazon glass repair kits, basically it is like a windshield repair kit:

It also depends on how extensive the crack is and where it is located. Plus it may not look as good as new especially if the glass is tinted.
Glass table tops tend to not do well with pets, children, & parties, although beautiful. You might consider replacing it with something more suitable such as wood, mosaics insert, or see the link below.

It depends on the extent of the damage, but many cracked tables can be repaired. Here's a link :

Perhaps this would be a good time to replace the glass table top with something that is a little more strudy. I used to have glass table tops and just keeping them smudge free was a never ending battle and they attract dust like crazy (at least where I live across from a business that sand blasts).
So for me they didn't work well.

I am looking forward to what will be the solutopn of this. I hope this can be posted as a project.
You could put crazy glue on it
This might be tricky in that the structure could have been compromised by the crack. You could try a glass repair kit, see if a car window company or glass company can do it but it may not remain as strong as it was.
I am sorry to say you probably cannot fix a crack in the glass, unless it is very tiny. You can use the method that the car repair people use and get the kit in Auto zone
Hello. Is this a structural damage? I will be afraid to have it crack— shatter while in use if something hot was placed on it or challenged by daily use. Sometimes safety is important. If there’s any doubt I would consider replacing it with a wood table top.
Thanks for the suggestion everyone. It is resolved. I found a glass repair kit from amazon.
Maybe contact a Car Windscreen Repair man, or make a feature of the crack as in Japanese idea.
Try Home Depot in the adhesive isle I think they have something there for glass after you fix it you could always stencil a pretty flower over it
THEY SELL GLASS SEALER AND CRACKED GLASS REPAIR KIT ON AMAZON
I doubt anything will undo the crack in the table top. Any repair job will be obvious no matter what you use. That is the nature of glass.
