How to Refinish Auto Windshields
- 1). Clean the glass you will be working on with soap and water. Then, dry the glass with a clean, lint-free towel.
- 2). Apply a liberal amount of glass polish to the surface of the glass where the scratch or swirl marks are.
- 3). Rub the buffer across the scratch without the power on. As you work the buffer across the scratched surface, turn the buffer on the lowest setting and gradually increase the orbital speed.
- 4). Work the polishing compound into the glass, but do not apply pressure to the buffer. Let the polish do the work. Stop when the scratches or swirl marks have disappeared.
- 5). Clean the surface of the glass with soap and water again and dry the area with a lint-free towel.
