Is there a suitable product on the market for removing a scratch from a windscreen or a company specialising in scratch removal. Any advice would be much appreciated.

It depends how deep the scratches are. Very light scratches can be removed with VERY mild abrasives, but deeper scratches mean you need to remove a lot of glass to get a good finish which will leave a distortion in the glass, so you need to think about the position of the scratches aswell.

Earlier discussions on this subject have lead to suggestion of the use of Jeweller's Rouge which, I understand, is a very very fine grinding paste, almost like talcum powder. Presumably a jeweller could supply it or point you in the direction of a source. A Google search quickly produced suppliers of cloths and polish so give that whirl, I suggest (not expensive)

I had a friend who swore by Duraglit to remove scrathes in glass.
This is like Brasso but it is in a tin in the form of an impregnated wool type stuff that you just pull very small clumps out and then rub on and polish off with a clean cloth. Does wonders for Brass and maybe glass as well?

hehe...I have my own method - dirt! If I let the car get dirty, the scratch on mine is almost completely not noticeable...at least as unobtrusive as all the heated wires...

See half-way down this link which also includes a strict warning not to use Duraglit...:-)

Ah ha! Turns out my mate was a bit of a dip-stick then!
Sorry all, didn't want to recommend a bad thing!
