  • C/k rear window

    Ready to install the rear window in my resto project and found it to have a lot of scratches. Has anyone tried Eastwoods glass scratch remover? They say the new glass comes from Peru and is cut larger than the opening. Don"t know which way to go with it. Anybody dealt with this before?

    I had Frosty's windshield polished by a professional glass shop. I asked to have the back glass polished also. They told me they could not polish tempered glass. You results may vary.

      Instead of hearsay, contact Studebaker Glass and ask them to guarantee it is not oversized at: http://studebakerglass.com/index.php...age=contact_us

      Here is the product.

        I have used Eastwood's glass scratch remover on windshields and had mixed results. If you can feel the scratches with your finger nail you will be wasting your time, the instructions even tell you that. Even when polishing out minor wiper scratches when finished the area around it you did not polish will look different. It is a lot of work with little return in my opinion. Your results may vary.
