This question comes through email by Tim:
Hello, this is a weird question but I was thinking I might be able to repair a couple of large chips in a set of car lights with a dark tint resin (I was thinking I could make a mold from the undamaged parts of the lens then shuffle it along the lens to make the mold to fill the gap) The lenses are tinted so I would need a smokey black for it to be a pleasant looking repair? What do you think? How well do resins wear, would they cope with the wear and tear of the elements?

Hi Tim,
I would suggest going with a polyurethane resin to make your replacement pieces. You could make the mold of the pieces with silicone, or even the silicone mold putty depending on the size of the pieces.
We have the silicone putty in our store here:
