my mams merc clk 230 today got a scratch on the windscreen
there must have been a little stone stuck on the wiper blade and wen she turned the wipers on its dragged it across the screen

is there anything you can buy to maybe polish it off ?? its only a very light mark ?

or is it a job for Autoglass

the ebay stuff takes years to work right, years since i have a cordless drill with only 3 batteries which for drilling holes through concrete walls is fine but this just ate through the power. Autoglym or turtlewax does glass polish and i read great reviews about them and intend to get some myself.
