I was told if you can catch them with your fingernail that they won`t come out. I did a windshield many years ago and polished wiper scratches out and it did distort the glass.

Facts are stubborn things.

You can buy kits to buff glass. it is alot of work if they are big or deep to buff and you risk distortions.

another good reason to carry zip ties. if you get caught in the rain and notice the metal part of the blade is touching [or getting ready to touch] the glass, put a zip tie [or two] around that part of the blade. it won't wipe very good, but at least it will keep the metal part of the blade from scratching the glass because the zip tie will be rubbing the windshield instead. this works best if the head of the tie is next to the glass.
