Windscreen Scratches Removal?
The missus had an issue with the alfa earier and the wiper blade snapped of leaving the metal arm free to make a light scratch on the screen.
I'm sure it will polish out but what product is best? Cheers, Kev |

ban her from using the car, quite clearly she can't be trusted, buy her a nice cheap bike, like a DRZ, in a conspicuous colour such as banana yellow to remind her she needs training before she's allowed near anything with an engine...

Re: Windscreen Scratches Removal?
give it a shot. If it doesn't come out. Pop back and ask someone else

Re: Windscreen Scratches Removal?
DOnt think the autoglym will look at it, its mainly a cleaner / polish not for remocing scratches. If you dont have any luck with it or the autosol, There is a aircraft window polish designed for getting scratches out of hardened perspex, it may work on glass, Cant remember the name as i got it a while ago and not at home just now so cant check. PM me (in case i miss the post) if you need the details.

Autosol - Really?
I'm a bit wary of using that on the drivers side. Might try it on a small patch elsewhere first. Just tried the Autoglym stuff and it didn't touch it. Am I right in thinking a big scratch like that might be an MOT failure? |

Re: Windscreen Scratches Removal?
Just going through the shed and found some 'Rain Away' which I used to use on my lid, when I could be bothered.
It fills in small imperfection on screens and visor etc. about 10 applications and polishes later and hey presto no scratch!!! Thanks all. |
