my rear screen has a little cm wide rainbow shaped scratch from where the pervious owner let the wiper blade get knackered.

its right near where the wiper motor used to be (dewipered the rear so it prety noticeable)

its not deep less than 0.1 of a mm if that

just asking for some tips on a way i can polish or sand it out?

it it just a case of wet and dry down to a ridiculously fine grit or will i need something else afterwards?

thanks in advance for the info

jim

Mine has the same,
I was watching a video only yesterday where a guy was on about it.

Look on the Drive channel on youtube and theres a video about cleaning glass.

He used DA Polisher with no backplate and some special glass polish

Cerium oxide, a rayon pad, and lots of time and care, ortherwise you can overheat the glass and distort/crack it.
