Harryjax Posted May 23, 2013 Posted May 23, 2013 Is there anything readily available to remove scratches from windscreen glass? Quote
ioneabee Posted May 24, 2013 Posted May 24, 2013 http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/65936-smeary-windscreen/page__st__60 depends how deep - but this sorted my problem out - it is a glass polish Quote
ilogikal1 Posted May 24, 2013 Posted May 24, 2013 As above, it depends on how deep the scratches are but anything cerium oxide based is what you need - such as http://www.polishedbliss.co.uk/acatalog/3m-glass-polishing-compound-cat16.html or http://www.cleanyourcar.co.uk/engine-and-exterior/glass-cleaners-sealants/carpro-ceri-glass-kit/prod_988.html for example. It's not an easy job, so it'll take a while by machine (rotary being better for this than DA) or take forever by hand if they're not light scratches. If they're too deep, you'll need to replace the glass. 1 Quote
Ekona Posted May 24, 2013 Posted May 24, 2013 For £60 or whatever your excess is, you could just get the screen replaced. If it had a good size crack in it, of course... Quote
cs2000 Posted May 31, 2013 Posted May 31, 2013 Yep, Ive considered this several times. Make sure your covered first though! One of my cars was so badly chipped (but like micro chips) that on a sunny day it looked like you were looking at a stary night with all the little chips reflecting the light. Quote
mattross1313 Posted May 31, 2013 Posted May 31, 2013 My screen is just like yours CS. Did you get it replaced via insurance? Just put up with it Quote
cs2000 Posted May 31, 2013 Posted May 31, 2013 Mine on the zed is OK. I may, or may not (incase my insurers are watching) have "accidentally" tripped and elbow dropped the windscreen on the celica and blamed it on a golf ball... They may, or may not be rather hard too ... Quote
