Windscreen Wiper Scratch

Recommended Posts

Hi all,

Has anyone experienced having their windscreen scratched by a tiny invisible piece of dirt on the windscreen wiper rubber? I used the wipers this morning, and to my annoyance I then found a massive scratch on the drivers side that covers almost the complete distance the wiper arm travels! It's not a deep scratch, and not normally noticeable - but the moment the sun hits the scratch it is 100% noticeable and 100000% annoying!

Would a windscreen repair place fix this sort of thing or is there nothing I can do?

a windscreen mob should be able to polish it out for ya, they did my old ba xr6 and came up a treat.

Thanks for the reply 1stKill. Can you recall how much it was to get it done?

It's honestly bad enough that the moment the sun hits it, what was an invisible scratch turns into a giant multi-coloured gash! I almost dread driving the car during the daytime right now :(
