    Get yourself some alcohol either Denatured or isopropyl. I prefer denatured and then some razor blades then soak a towel in the alcohol and rub it on the windshield pretty good follow that with the razor blade scraping the residue off the windshield this will remove all the rubber residue from the blades. Follow that with the alcohol again then clay the window as you would the car and follow that with some glass cleaner. I suggest either Stoner IG or the Meg`s NXT Glass Cleaner.

    Yes, it really works on light scratches, pits, heavy water spots, and other residues.

    The Detailer`s Pride Glass polish works well too.

    You`ll need to get a glass polish, and a attatchment for a drill or rotary made for windsheild repair.
