Hi Guy,
I hope you had a good weekend it was nice here in chicago.
Does anybody have any ideas to remove light - medium scrates from a windsheild ?

Thank's

Zaino glass polish seems to help. Even something like rain x seems to fill them in for a while, but anything you apply will have to be constantly reapplied. It will wear off with rain, wipers, and washing. You may be able to have them buffed out or something, I don't know if that can be done or not
.

It's typically easier just to have it replaced.

I agree with replacing it. I tried the Zaino glass polish (works great on acid rain spots), but the scratches never came out. Usually you just pay the glass deductible ($100 for example) to get a new windsheild, esp if the scratch is in your field of vision.

General rule is if you can feel it with your fingernail it is not reapairable.

If you cannot feel it, you can get different glass polishes to buff it off.

The Eastwood Company has several glass polishing products, including some power applied compounds that will remove fine scratches (#40011) or deeper scratches (#40030).

If the scratches are MINOR you can use toothpaste to get them out...yes I said TOOTHPASTE! Don't forget to rinse it off with scope...LOL.

Can Preparation H be used for rear-end problems, like my noisy rear-diff?

I wonder if Viagra would give our cars a little "lift"!

Yep. specifically... Pearl Drops Tooth Polish. It contains a silica based abrasive. You can apply with a foam pad just like a buffing compound, just don't add much water to keep it wet while applying.
