scratched windscreen


Recommended Posts

Hello,

My 2001 boxster's windshield is scratched probably as a result of previous owners' bad wiper blades. They are very visible when I'm driving at night.

The scratches are all over the area reachable by the wipers. I can barely feel the scratches when I move my nails on them so they are not that deep.

Any ideas on how to get these fixed?

Thanks...

thanks a lot seafeye. Have you tried this product/know anyone who did?

I actually have the mud kit myself. It works well to get out the small scratches but you have to be carefull that you don't heat the glass to the point it will crack. Also if you get the smaller kit you can't really use a drill. The pad ends up walking over the window and you can't get enough grip to move it in the direction that you need it to. So you really need the sander tool that they have in the picture.

My neighbour used to own a windshield repair business and he told me he used the stuff on hard to find replacement parts.

So give this a try or get a new windshield for about $500 installed....maybe less.
