They obviously didn't like it on the glass (and nor do I) so

I'm not quite sure how steel manages to scratch glass?

It feels like relatively soft glass but even so scratching glass isn't
that hard. The hardened steel tip of a screw driver is pretty tough and
I would imagine the corner could scratch glass without much trouble.

If you are a complete Muppet and use said screwdriver like a shovel I am
sure it is fairly easy in fact ).



Is there any way of removing even the smaller scratches? I would
rather not take the panes of glass out if I can help.


Polishing out scratches in glass is invariably more effort than replacing
it.
