My stock windshield has minor pits from years of sand and road debris. It's nothing bad, but I can see it at certain angles in medium light.

Can these pits be buffed out, or at least minimized?

Is so is there a step by step guide?

By hand?

With PC?

Thanks

yup, yup and yup...

the secret is glass polish. several products out there- zaino makes one that i used recently.
you can do it by hand, but i wouldnt. the pc is the best choice... keep the speed down and do a small area first to make sure that its not hazing the glass.
glass polish wont get out cracks or bad pits, but it will really clean up the glass and can get some of the minor problems. definitely worth trying-

more info and details on diamondite (a glass polish):

What is PC?

I think he meant to say RO (Random orbital) polisher.

I thought pitting could not be fixed and windshield replacement is the only way?

You can make a minor difference with buffing it out, but it won't be close to new. A new one is $200. Just do it.

200?!

Where is a good place in Socal that can do it for $200?
