GLASS POLISHING..........................

Nope, harder....I wish I had good news for you but depending on how bad the razor dug in it might not completely take the scratches out...If it's just small drag marks with the razor completely flat then it should polish out...The fingernail catch assessment is a good guide to the damage...

Can`t really feel em w/my fingernails..............we`re thinking maybe about tinting em at this point..........

Tinting the windows will make them stand out even more.

Hey Dom...a while back I took my truck to my insurance company to get it appraised for windsheild replacement as it had a big rock chip right in the line of sight, they brought out some kind of two part, mixed it and put it over the chip, gone, I don't know what It was but it worked, and you cannot tell it's there unless you look for it in the sun glare, so maybe a call to a glass shop or your insurance carrier for the answer.

Thankxxx guys, still not sure which way to go yet but soon........

I bought the Eastwood Deep scratch removal kit and was messing around with it last week. They give you 3 different abrasive discs to choose from to sand off the scratch, then the powder for the second step to polish. I was using the most aggressive abrasive disc with a steady water stream to try to sand out the scratches for about 20 minutes on my quarter glass and It didnt really seem to do much except for making the area cloudy. Im assuming once I use the polish it will be clear again, but Im following the instructions, Im going to do it more this weekend, I just think it may take a long time.. the kit was about 80 bucks, and so far Im not sold on it.

We were at it again on the glass this last weekend. I may have gotten a little to aggressive with the sanding discs as I ended up putting swirl type scratches in a few spots that would not go away after further sanding. Having said that, I used the powder they supply, mixed it into a slurry and polished it out. It looked fantastic everywhere except for the small scratches that I made with the sanding discs and on the deep scratches, they were still visible but not as deep as you could no longer catch a nail on it. Im thinking that glass is too far gone now. On my remaining glass, I didnt bother to sand out any scratches, I just used the polish slurry and after doing both sides, aside from a few scratches that were there, the glass looks amazing.

Id say its worth the time to polish out the glass, but if you are looking for deep scratches to disappear, not sure if thats possible. Its also possible that I wore out the sanding pads prematurely and possibly with more work I could get out the swirls, but at this point Im looking for another quarter glass for that side..

I'm wondering about how you can see throught a polished glass with Cerium oxide at nights and headlights from cars coming over... Thats my problem. Is becoming hard to drive to me on those momenbts ( on my both cars, 1975 Mercedes and 1974 Charger )

both got small wiper edges schratches, but even I'd like to fix that, is not my big problem

Thanks for the update.....how many hours do you have in it - how long did it take to do the sanding disc part and how long with the slurry? (and what kind of area were you covering?)
I did have a go a few years back on my side windows which are scratched from going up and down. I used some cerium oxide (jewellers rouge) and also tried cutting compound (which some have used with success), and did not seem to see any progress. I moved on to other things but still need to come back to these eventually, hence my interest!

On the side glass I was working on, I spent about 20 minutes of concentrated sanding on each spot with each sanding pad, so Id say over an hr and a half just with the discs starting from most coarse to finest. With the slurry, It took about 30 minutes to get both sides done as it went quicker. First I went left to right, overlapping my passes, then up and down, doing the same thing. The stuff is like toothpaste and it covers well.

Excellent, good information, thanks a lot
