While I was removing the newspapers and masking tape from the front windscreen after spraying the scuttle, some of the making tape didn’t come off the screen cleanly , had been stuck for well over a month . So set about removing it with a Stanley blade and some white sprit to soften what was left of the glue.
Only now right in the drivers line of sight I’ve now got loads of small scratches :'( . Out of the whole screen that was the only area I managed to scratch , not only that but the screen has only been in for a few months and don’t really want to replace it again.

So is there something like a kit you can buy to polish them out in much the same way as paint work , or is new screen time again. :'(

cheers,

A bit pricey, and never used one, so no idea how good it might be, but there's this...

Cheers for the help, i'll be giving bungles idear a try first and if that doesn't work, trying out one of the kits.
Really don't want to have to change the screen again.
