i bought a windshield from a yard for $50 to replace my old cracked unit. the replacement sat in the yard for quite some time but there are no cracks and damage on it. however it looks a bit fuzzy with direct light.

any recommendations?

If its pitted, its screwed.

assume its not. clean it up with soap and water and clay the crap out of it. Get as much crap off of it if as you can. Then hit it with a quality Glass Polish i.e. Autoglym or 1Z- Both awesome and easy to use.

If you have a PC and can apply the polish like that all the better. If it not on the vehicle yet, you could do both sides, which would be great.

I've found the inside of the glass to be the most troublesome since you cant really get good leverage to scrub and its always very finicky. Do you best to clean both sides well and see where you're at.

2nd, autoglym with the pc works great. It's amazing how much embedded dirt it removes.

i don't think i have any impact damage, just minor scratches.

My windshield is pretty beat up, but I'd gladly pay $50 for a windshield of a $500 car lol.

if it is scratched, is there anything to heavily polish the glass?
