[QUOTE="oldmodman, post: 15541870, member: 10303"] I was able to polish out a windshield wiper score track on a 2002 Toyota Corolla. I did this before all the new special glass polishes came out. I used a rotary polisher and a wool bonnet. And a slurry that I made from water and cerium oxide. I already had the cerium oxide because I had made my own telescope mirror way back in the 70's It took all day to polish out the scratch and then remove the haze caused by the wool pad. I ended up using the rotary and a Meguiars medium pad. The initial polishing took about three hours, and the haze removal took about four hours. During the process I was constantly misting the work area with water from a pump garden sprayer. I kept the slurry in a little squeeze bottle and had to apply it (directly to the pads) about every five minutes. It was the messiest job I have ever done. The stuff got everywhere. On me, the rotary ploisher, the entire car, the side of the house. EVERYWHERE! It ended up looking like a new windshield. Would I EVER do it again? HELL NO! I would just order a new, replacement windshield. [/QUOTE]
