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,

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.
