Superglue wise, I like this one. Easy to apply perfect size and amount each time. Use it for whatever else you need and then occasionally use it for windshield. It's liquid so it sorta self levels (I think) and you can use exactly the dot amount you need without worry the rest of the unused super glue will easily dry out.

They have a gel version too if you prefer. I've always wondered if it might dry in a pointed shape that could shred the wiper if too cold, but I haven't seen it happen yet.

I've looked at the kits and those seem overkill unless you have a nearly dime sized area you need to address with spider web cracking. Most of the times I'm dealing with a tiny hole or chip, so the superglue method works fine.
You should be able to clean it up with a razor. That's the last step with the kits, you cut off the remaining glue. You can see that at 8:45 in this video:





But the kits use a UV curing resin, not super glue. But I assume you could cut it the same way.
