Tom,

Q My Chevy Colorado has a scratch in the windshield from the windshield

wiper. Can I buff it out with wax?

Sammy,

A There are products on the market designed to buff out scratches in glass,

not a wax but a rubbing compound much like jeweler’s rouge, a fine jewelry-
buffing compound. I tend to shy away from them because if not properly
used, you can do more damage than good. If you must try this, apply the
rubbing compound by hand and see if you can buff it out. It all depends on
how deep the scratch is into the glass. If you must use a power applicator
because the hand application is not touching it, try using a small fine buffing
bonnet with a variable speed electric drill. Use low speeds in working the
compound.

Good    luck!
