Removing scratches on glass

Hi guys

After we had the skidpan event last year in the rain, the white stuff they numbered our windows with really struggled to come of. I was stupid enough to get impatient and took a rough-ish sponge to get it off. :bang:

Check the photo below for the scratches, the photo makes it look a bit worse than it actually is.

What can you suggest to try and salvage the windows?

AutoGlym makes a nice product called glass polish. This is good at removing minor scratches however its preferable to use via machine to get a good level of correction - here is a pad designed for this job

If this doesn't work well enough, you then may need to actually sand down the glass, similar to the headlight restoration process.

Last resort will be to replace the entire glass
