Default Filling deep scratches and gouges on CRT front glass

Greetings:

In several archived threads of this NG, auto windshield
fillter material has been suggested to repair deep scratches
and gouges on CRT front glass; has anyone done this
successfully, as in reducing the distortion and shadowing
from the scratches to tolerable levels? What brand names
of filler material have been tried? Has anyone ever
obtained the Novus brand material which on the TV commercials
at least, appears to fill deep dings very well?

Please, no lectures about CRT safety ;-)

Regards,

Michael

I doubt anything will be a 100% fix, but check out Eastwood's
automotive glass products.
