    since when is a windsheild laminated by plastic sheets??? the "plastic" is between the glass, that's why you can pick out all the pieces when one shatters

    on the same subject, but on a different note, at most malls they do "free" windsheild chip and scratch repairs in the parking lots....

    its not really "free", but supposedly it is fully covered by most insurance companies

    this is an old school thread but any polish will work on glass...whenever i do the paint i clean, polish, and wax the windows at the same time. takes out all the fine scratches and water runs right off...you just have to be careful not to get wax near/on rubber or you'll have a fun time trying to get it off.

    you can use the plastic polish or even the metal polish creme on headlights & taillights too.
