Glass polishing

I have some light wiper scratches on a windscreen I'd like to improve, can't be felt with the finger nail
I tried some car pro ceri glass and a foam pad in a drill but this wouldn't touch it.
Any recommendations for some paste or a kit to use or am I wasting my time?
I've tried before, like you no improvement. I reckon it's one of those jobs where you need a knack.I tried some car pro ceri glass and a foam pad in a drill but this wouldn't touch it.

Wiper marks usually cannot be felt with your nail because they're more like a scuff that's been worn in with the continuous wiper sweeps. When polishing, the lighter marks start to disappear revealing the deeper ones. It can sometimes look worse. If there is a deeper gouge underneath all that, getting rid of that will lead to distortion.
There aren't many glass polishing specialists who will want to take a wiper scratch on.

Ceriglas is effectively the same as jewellers rouge in that it’s cerium oxide.
You’ll need rayon pads to use in conjunction with it. Even then it’s a very laborious task, be careful with heat build up when polishing especially if you have any stone chips.
