Default Removing scuffs and scratches from glass

Did I imagine it, or did I once read on here that 'Brasso' (or something
similar) can be used to remove scratches from car glass? It's drivers
drop-glass that's scuffed (rather than scratched) vertically from worn
weather strips.

Brasso (or TCut) will polish glass but needs a hell of lot of elbow grease!
Another option (depending on how big the scratches) would be Jewelers Rouge.

Jewelers rouge is by far the best way. I got some from Autoglass of all
people as they use it themselves. However even with this for the latest
job, I needed to use a mini polisher otherwise a lot of elbow grease would
have been needed.

Brasso is excellent for plastic screens, perspex etc and I suspect T cut
would be ok as well. It is not as abrasive (quite) but it is astonishing
how good it is as a metal polish when one cannot find the brasso!
