DaddyCee Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Hi All. I seem to have some scratches on the passenger window that I would like to clear up. I hear that toothpaste can be used, but I think the scratch is a little deeper than that would work on. So has anyone tried this product: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Glass-Scratch-Repair-Kit-DIY-Polish-Window-Scratch-Remover-for-Glazing-etc-/380915073191?_trksid=p2141725.m3641.l6368 Cheers, DC.

Randy_Baton Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 The scratches on the windows are a common problem, there's a few threads about it on here. Sorry to say this, but your not getting them out. Toothpaste will work on the plastic headlights but not on the glass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davey_83 Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 You could machine polish them, purely just to take the edge off so they dont look as bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SJO Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 Didnt think it was possible. Do they have to be very light scratches? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willsy1980 Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 (edited) Jewelers Rouge: http://www.ebay.co.u...07291931&crdt=0 Use it with water and a high speed drill (not cordless too slow) you will need a buffing wheel like this: http://www.ebay.co.u...3YAAOSwmLlYBw2T Mask the side of your car and surrounding panels, plastics etc, it gets everywhere. Go easy at it, and work a bigger area than the scratch. This will cut into the glass and cause a ripple if you focus too small. You can take more off but ya can't put it back Here's a demo: EDIT: Noticed you have a Roadster, do not get the Rouge on the roof skin ! It will wash off paint but not fabrics or plastics.

ed divine Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 You can get the rayon pads and car pro ceri glass is what I use to remove scratching on glass but it's tricky and you have to be careful with heat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
