screen refurb.

norseman · Feb 25, 2019

The windscreen of my 31 year old RRC is probably the original & getting a bit scratched on the outside, so I'm wondering if there's a product, maybe with slightly abrasive qualities, that can be used to polish the glass?
Those of a cynical nature (like myself) might say crack it & claim on your insurance, but (a) I don't want to disturb the seal until I have to & (b) mine has the tinted band across the top which I doubt is still available.
Thank folks.

Thanks for the reply, bit pricy I think

I was hoping there'd be a commercial over the counter product. Time for a bit of searching maybe, but wondered if anyone else had experienced a solution.

The only other thing I can think of is to use a fine polishing disc and polishing liquid/paste same as is used with car detailing. Paint is softer than glass so it might be a safe bet.
