Glass Polishing. Anyone Been Successful?

[wildy55]

Hey

Has anyone managed to remove scratches from the exterior of glass? I've rub marks on the hatch glass after the previous owner thought it was a good idea to fit a louvre - from a different ( non 240- sized car...).

Hopefully you can make out the marks that run vertically down the glass.

Cheers

I am also keen to try to fins a way as my door glass is scratched.

 

I did see a youtube video once on this but i am not convinced.

 

I will see if i can find it.

Use Jewellers Rouge. It is a very fine powder used to polsh diamnds, which are a teeny bit harder than glass.

Small jars can be bought from most decent jwellers/watchmakers.

Frget the shopping centre bling shops, they wont have a clue what it is.

I bought a kit for glass from this site: http://www.polish-up.com.au

 

He was very helpful over the phone and service was prompt.

 

I also purchased a bunch of wheels and bars for polishing metals. Happy with everything he supplied.

 

I haven't tried the glass kit yet but I will need to very soon.

Cheers. Will hunt some down and give it a go.

I tried the home kit, didn't seem to remove anything. A friend who restored his camaro had his done professionally and you can see waves in the glass now so it seems to be quite hard to do evenly. 

I did find a place in QLD the polishes curved automotive glass with great results from the reviews I heard but cant remember the name off the top of my head.
