I didn't say it was your fault, I said I was blaming you.

I've read the way to tell if the windshield can be saved or not is to run your fingernail over the scratch. If it can be felt with the fingernail it's too deep to be polished out successfully. The truth is if you're patient enough just about anything can be polished out, but - if the scratch was too deep the finished result will be wavy, which is not too cool for a windshield. http://www.amazon.com/Eastwood-Polishing-Scratch-Removal-Repair/dp/B0034CLKQ4 | | | | | Joined: May 2010 Posts: 26 Apprentice | | Apprentice Joined: May 2010 Posts: 26 | Thanks guys for the info and the website I really appreciate it.My windsheild isnt really that bad i just wanted to see if I could make it a little better.
