Is it possible to polish a scratch out of tempered glass?

We have a glass dining-table and being the absolutely fussy bastard that I am, I'm really strict about what goes on it. I don't allow anything on there that's not on a place-mat or similar.

However, somehow it has been scratched and quite badly too.

It is currently grating on me, like nails down a black-board, so I HAVE to sort it. Can it be done?

 

you can buy glass polish,

we use to do this on car windscreens after wiper arms had scratched the glass

 

Its like the house of obsessive compulsives!

but agree with ADRENALINE KA

 

You know me??

 

nope never met you in my life good guess then?

 

a valeter once told me that toothpaste takes light scratches out of glass cos its mildly abrasive....worth a try...

 

There's a powder (no not cocaine)

It's called lapping powder & it's used to take out heavy scratch's out of glass.

I used to have some years ago but im not sure where you can get hold of any now.

 

Trying something called Jewellers Rouge. Do a search on Google for it. I have used it before for fine scratches and it's worked perfectly.

 

The glazing company I used to work for always used Jewellers Rouge to get scratches off glass, including laminated and toughened glass.

 

glass polishing kit - half way down the page - comes with the powder

yes it can be done with a lot of elbow grease i used to work for a glazing company(12 years) and we used the stuff redkop has said it is good,if you can get hold of and electric buffer then job done easy if not then theres more arm movement than a teenager watching debbie does dallas
