Default Scratched windshield

I had my windshield sitting up against a wall and bumped it...it slid across a piece of cinderblock and got a couple scratches. They aren't real deep. Is there any way to buff them out or something else I can do short of replacing the thing? Thanks&nbsp\\;

There is some stuff made for Lexan to remove scratches.&nbsp\\; It's called Novus 2(light scratches)&nbsp\\;&amp\\; Novus 3(heavy scratches).&nbsp\\; A buddy of mind used it and said it worked good.&nbsp\\; I've&nbsp\\;seen&nbsp\\;it sold in&nbsp\\;Harley shops plus I am sure you can find it on internet.&nbsp\\; They have a spray cleaner too that I've used and it's good.&nbsp\\;

I've used novus 3 and novus 2.&nbsp\\; Spent Hours and it would only dull the scratch but not take it out. It didn't even work on small scratches.&nbsp\\;

When you do get the scratches out, use an old sweatshirt to slip over it when you take it off. Simple and cheap.

Greetings,
&nbsp\\;
Something I've used in the past on light scratches is those lemon Pledge wipes. I don't know what's in those things, but it has worked wonders for me.
