Thanks guys, I too thought there has to be an alternative to settling with glass imperfections or buying new glass that often doesn't fit or look correct.

If you're thinking of doing this I strongly encourage you to watch the videos available on The Glass Polish Shop web sight.

And to clarify about my time spent, I'm pretty cautious and took my time, didn't want to be too aggressive and botch something. If I were to do this piece today I may be able to shave my time down to a sporty 25 hours or so.
