repairing scratched glass
« on: November 03, 2010, 01:51:51 pm »
Is it possible to repair glass once it's scratched? I have a customer who thinks I have scratched the pane. I noticed it when I was cleaning it and doubt very much it was me but would rather keep the customer happy if possible. I use WFP most of the time and have never scratched one before but I guess you never know, something could have been stuck in the bristles from the previous sill etc.
I have seen something about it on here before but the search feature seems to be on a break.
Many thanks..

If you run your nail across the scratch and you feel a indent you will not get it out if you can feel the scratch and there is no indent you will get it out

I think I scratched a pane today  DOH!!!!
Brand new and covered with putty where the glazer rubbed it over. I am hoping that it is marks left by the putty and not actually scratched. I will go back with a brand new blade and have another go. If it is a scratch I will prob just replace it.
if it is dirty it is fair game
