Default Excuse OT question re buffing out a windshield scuff.

...
What product or process could be used to polish out a significant
winter scuff of the windshield of our not much driven (80,000
kilometres = about 50,000 miles since new in 2002) Nissan Frontier
pickup .
Scuff is not directly in front of driver, but where the passenger side
wiper sweeps into the top right hand of driver's portion of the glass.
Maybe was grit or dust that got trapped. First time have ever had this
problem.
OR: Would it just be best to change the windshield? Probably at cost
of at least $150?
Any advice or reference to a suitable auto news group would be most
welcome.


Check with a local glass shop. The price of a new one is probably closer to
$300 but may be covered by your insurance if you have glass coverage. At
50,000 miles they are starting to show pitting from crap on the road and
winder sand if you are in snow territory. A new windshield is almost as
good as getting a new car.
