If the scratches are mild, Autoglym glass polish will do the trick.

 

If not, you can get this glass polishing kit from Autobacs, which includes a polishing compound and some special sanding pads. It costs around $40+.

Oh my, i m also having the same problem! Dam irritating, got use wiper like never use like tat.

 

Dont knw why now whn i use the wiper, lets say to clean e windscreen with a jet of water frm the water spray, the windscreen actually got worse. There are full of water marks and streaks of white powdery stuff. Anyone knws wat is actually happening? Is it the wiper?

Yes, it looks like time to change wiper liao. Used a strong doses of mama lemon detergent water and clean your windscreen then change to a new wiper, problem should be solved.

[thumbsup] I use the DG Nuglass #755. I apply a thin layer to the glass first using the wax applicator and let it haze. Thereafter I pour a little of the nuglass to the mf cloth and try to manually polish the glass. Works wonder, the glass would be so squeky clean that it appears so clear. But hard work is needed though, just like polishing car.

this is an utter myth. u need compound to clean the windscreen especially those waterstains. if the stains still there, you will get the judder. apparently colgate does the job, but u will need a lot of elbow grease. as recommended above, after all my experiment and 1 damaged ws, the best polish i came across so far is the soft99 z comp (its less than 20bucks at ntuc extra). polish ur ws with this, and put on ur dg rainrepel, or rainx whatever. wont judder anymore.

Can Colgate really do the polishing job?
