    Glass Polishing Tip - Passenger Side First

    Glass polishing is a bit of a mystery to me. I don't see a lot of posts about it. Doesn't seem like many people use the cerium oxide/glass polishing pads. I have seen you post that you can just use any clear coat safe compound/polish which seems reasonable. I have some scratches in my back...

    Harbor freight DA?

    It would undo all the work you just did unfortunately. Harbor Freight machine is great but the backing plate is crap. Given your time constraints, might be best to just leave it as it is and plan ahead to do a de-swirling and protection prior to winter. Check out the dedicated harbor freight...
