txdieseldog Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 Posted pics last night for my GMC Astro and keep forgetting to ask. Front windshield has one of those "sitting in storage on top of a tire too long" type marks. Is there a way to fix it? And if the general consensus leans towards so-so on results..........would anybody happen to have one in the scrap bin? Same thing has happened to the driver side window but I wanted to cut it down to the quarter window anyway. (Like my windows open) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
george 53 Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 Barry, use some thin clear plastic sheet to make your windows. I have some clear Thermoform plastic that I got from Squadron Shop. It cuts real easy and It's perfect for flat panes like you need. Hth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigmikevee Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 (edited) Hey Barry, You could also try, if you can get to the area now, to polish it out, use either Novus or a polishing kit, use the finest grade paper in the kits you can, experiment on something not assembled then try on your van. Good luck. Mike Edited November 29, 2011 by bigmikevee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBad Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 Thought of trying car wax and polish that windshield? Use one that is not abrasive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clayton Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 wet sand,start with a 1000 grit and work to a extra fine like 6000,get at wal mart. Then use a rubbing compound made for clear plastic auto lenses,this stuff has a funky name(have too look for it.) Fun fact,The lens on my car was getting fuggy,I tried it on them now I can see at night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
