Had the same problem - tried the Eastwood polish method. As in other posts, very tedious and messy. The results were not very good - the glass did distort in some places. You really have to take your time with the buffer/polish method. I ultimately got the window replaced via car insurance. It was not original glass, and as a plus, the tint stripe at the top of the window is wider - looks better.Don't waste your time, replace it.

Howdy,
The windshield on my car is ugly. I would describe it as being 'hazed'. Lots of little tiny nicks in it. If the sun hits it it's like having a sheet thrown over the car, I can't see out. I'm wondering if I can do something to help clear this up, or do I need to buy a new windshield?
Thanks,
Joe Ording
