Scratched windshield

Hi,

I put nice scratch on my windshield last night. Is there anything out there that can fill it in and hide it a litte.

Thanks

Bob

Novus is a cleaner / polish for lexan, available at HD. There are two levels, so you can use what you need depending on how bad the scratch is.

Level one is a cleaner polish Part number 99837-94T

Level 2 is a scratch remover part number 99836-94T

Works well.

Mcguyers Plastex works real good. But mine is splattered with bugs most of the time anyways. It's a wind shield, not a window... It's gonna get scratched and scuffed chipped, so i would'nt worry about it if I were you. JMHO...

You said "fill it in" so I assume its pritty deep. None of the "scratch removers" deal very well with deep scratches. Might want to save up for a new windshield!

+1 on the Novus products. It cleans(level 1 product) and puts a slight wax on the lexan which makes bug clean off a snap. If you havent tried it and your one that cleans the shield after every ride- this product is made for you. Also a note, alittle goes a long ways.
