I was wondering if there is a product I could use on my windshield. When the sun shines on it, it's almost impossible to see out of it because it is all sandblasted. It's got millions of tiny imperfections that produce glare. Do I have to get a new windshield, or is there something I can use?

Does the DP Perfect Vision Kit form Autogeek work? It says it is also for spotted glass.

Thanks

i dont think there exists a product that can resurface a windsheild while keeping perfect optics.

i could be wrong though.

Honestly, I think you are better off just getting a new windshield. It will be so much easier to see in all conditions and will make driving much safer. It really doesn't cost that much for a new one...I paid $215 installed on my e36.

The DP High Performance Glass Restorer (http://www.autogeek.net/dp515.html) that is included in the kit is excellent for remove water spots and smoothing out etched glass. Think of it as a fine jewelers rouge for glass polishing.

Cool, thanks. I'll try the restorer, if it doesn't work out, I'll get a new windshield.

Tried claying it yet? Helped mine a bit.

Keep us updated on the restorer, I'm curious to know how that works out.

I have the information that will assist you with the glare and any glass issues the rest of the readers may have. Google Eastwood Company and type glass on their search button. Cheaper than a new windshield and then send me half the money you saved, I will be waiting at my mailbox. Picture a smiley here…not enough posts…drat.<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p>
I will be doing before, in progress and after pictures of 1980 F100 Ford pickup that when you turned into the sun you can not see out the windshield at all and believe me I had a pucker factor of 9 on my 1 – 10 scale. Thank goodness I had the window down and steered into the first drive way and I felt like my dog with her head out the window in the breeze. I just could not believe my neighbors story about his pickup and the glass. I am waiting for the temperatures to rise because I do not want this product to freeze during shipping. <o:p></o:p>

It seems to me that the pits are much like swirl marks or scratches in the paint in that to remove the pits you would have to remove the surrounding glass down to the level of the bottom of the pits. The problem would be to removing the same amount of glass uniformly across the entire windshield so that there is no distortion.

Of course, if you're going to have to replace the windshield, the Eastwood products that PaintPolisher has pointed to would be worth a try. If they create a problem, you could still replace the windshield and just be out the cost of the glass polish and a few hours of time.

Sounds interesting. Hopefully I'll get one in 2 or 3 weeks maybe. I'll post before and after pictures. Thanks for the site. Here's a link.
