Default scratched glass

Hi all
I'm in the process of installing the glass in my XY and noticed it has scratches. Does anyone know of a company in Sydney who can professionally remove them. I want to use the original ones not aftermarket
Any feedback would be great

Any good windscreen repairer should be able to polish glass or try domestic glass repairers aswell.. Couple listed below..

The problem you get if you try to polish out scratches you get optical sections a bit like ground spectacle lenses.Not really much to worry about with door glass but can pose real problems with front windscreens.

How noticeable it is would depend on how much the thickness changes and how rapidly it goes from thick to thin.
I am waiting on some cerium oxide to arrive so in can have a go at polishing windscreen wiper scratches on a windscreen.
