scratched windshield - Toyota Yaris Forums

yrsdrgn · 02-07-2007, 12:04 AM

i was walking over to my car the other day and i noticed some bird droppings on my windshield. so i took a wet paper towel and wiped it off. sadly, there was stuff in the bird droppings that apparently scratched my windshield. does anyone know how i can possibly fix this problem?

dude what did that bird eat that could have possibly been that sharp and solid to scratch glass....musta ripped him a new one on the way out lol

Bird's often eat up rocks and it just goes straight through their digestive system and back out....no problems ~

So I'm guessing it's rock ~ Anyways....how big is the scratch?

I think you can buy a glass scratch sealing thing that just fills in the scratch with liguid glass.....and dries up and you won't see the scartch anymore ~

I'm not sure.....it's just from memory ~

lol, ive got the same problem ><!

i guess i'll go to kragen or something to see if they have nething but i do like that liquid glass idea haha. the scratch is in a blind spot created by the rear-view mirror so yea it's not really a big deal but i'd like to have a clean looking windshield instead of a scratched one and it's about 3cm-4cm long and not that deep

Now let's just hope Jaspie wasn't dreaming and making up things ~

I'm sure I've seen those around though.....correct me if I'm wrong ~

my windshield also has two scratches that run horizontal in my direct view! i was cleaning my windshield with a towel and there must have been some debris which caused the two scratches.

these windshields suck! how could they possibly scratch so easily?

yrsdrgn · 02-13-2007, 07:28 PM

i'll probably bring mine in to a body shop and see if they can possibly fix it for free if not....very very cheap
