oobster Posted March 27, 2007 Posted March 27, 2007 As above - i've had a scratch on my drivers side window (front) since I got the car and i'd been investigating ways of getting it sorted. First I priced up a new piece of glass from Subaru - something like £157 [] Then I found a breakers down in Willenhall that assured me they had a drivers window that was unmarked. Sadly when it arrived & i'd removed it from the packaging it was probably in worse condition that my own window. So that got sent back & I tried a few glass specialist companies around Edinburgh & Glasgow. One of them gave a company name called GlasWeld. SO I gave them a phone & the guy (Robin Mockett) came out on Friday to have a look - no problem sir, i'll be round on Tuesday afternoon to get that out. He arrived abour 3pm today, covered over the whole drivers side of the car, the roof, bonnet and boot lid too then set to work with whatever the stuff is he uses. An hour and a half later the scratch is gone (well I can't see it anymore anyway) - £40 for the first hour then £15 for every hour after. Inc. VAT I think it was about £64 something. So if you want some scratches removed from glass then give the amusingly-named Robin Mockett a call on 07957 856687. (http://www.glaswelduk.com) oobster P.S. This didn't appear to be a vertical scratch like one that would be created by dirt in the window rubber scratching the glass when the window goes up and down - this was like a sort of Z-shape.
