    Yea, get new gl***!
     
  3. What do you mean "no"????
    There are lots of products out there to polish gl*** to remove even deep scratches. All it takes is time and elbow grease.
    Google "gl*** polishing" or scratch removal and you'll get lots of info and places to buy kits.
     
  4. I didn't mean it's not possible. but it doesn't make sense to spend a hundred hours labor on a $2-300 windshield. even scratches that are removed leave a distortion that is usually worse than the original scratch.
    44 years in the gl*** business but it's just my opinion. didn't mean to start a flame

  7. Plus, unless you have one of the flash electric disc polishers youend up with waves in polished gl***. Kinda looks like that real old gl*** you see in 200 year old homes.

    Gotta agree with NONAME & Scotts Ent. Even if you did manage to polish the gl***,you will more than likely have distortion.
    15 years in the trade(guess i'm a 'newbie!')

    Hey Doc...you should see 400+ year old gl***!
    It's 'technically' a liquid and sags over the centuries......
     
  9. Yeah, young country an all. 200 isabout our limit!
