Recently I discovered micro scratches on literally every glass window in my car. I can only assume that a detailer made a mistake and used an abrasive or dirty towel/sponge when cleaning at some point, but only noticed recently when driving with the sun going down. I'm pretty bummed about it. I took it to a local detailer and he said it's too time consuming without any guarantee to fix them and suggested just changing all the glass. Insurance won't cover scratches as it is not a safety hazard and only cracks, etc are covered.
I've watched a ton of videos on Youtube and decided to give it a go to repair myself. I'm aware Celium Oxide is likely the best to use, but I decided to go with the following:
1) Prewash with good glass cleaner, clay bar and lube.
2) DA Polish with Carpro Ceriglass (contains Cerium Oxide). Will likely take many passes and I'll need to work section by section
3) Clean with Carpro Eraser to prep for glass treatment
4) Apply glass protection
I'll post some photos later when the sunlight shows them best. Curious if anyone has any other tips or experience with this. I also have a temperature guage to ensure I don't heat the glass too much and create distortion. Perhaps I'm stubborn but I want to give it a go before spending a fortune on replacing all the glass!
