Fix tiny rock chips?

so i got my windshield replaced 2 weeks ago and already have 6-7 of those tiny little rock chips that are just big enough to sparkle in the sun and annoy the f out of u. Is there any way to make these less noticeable ? Im assuming those do it yourself kits are for slightly larger chips

You gotta stop following so closely behind other cars. What brand of windshield did you get?

Those DIY kits would be perfect for your application.
The suction should be able to fill in the tiniest chip.

Fer sure. The main road by our house is used by dump trucks going to the landfill two miles away, so I stay back 200' for good reason.
Now all the TLs have bras (not into repainting peppered bumpers OR windshields) and I don't give a hoot what anybody says they look like.
