    Hi-
    Dirty windows/ Shields....Drive me nuts...
    Yesterday while cleaning my car; I noticed the windshield; from the inside; had the illusion of many Small chips...As I rubbed my Hand across the outside of my windshield, It was smooth.

    Would anyone have an explanation of what this is?

    Does it look like its been sand blasted, lots of little bright spots when looking into the sun? I’ve heard of getting glass polished but not sure how effective it is.

    Don't waste your money. Once a windshield gets sandblasted by many highway miles the only real solution is replacement.

    If you don't mind replacing with factory glass vs aftermarket...

    Thank you guys.....I’m going to take her to a real reputable detailer Near me and see what he says...

    If I have to replace it.....I want the same windshield...I love the little Easter egg....

    Factory replacement glass has it. Aftermarket does not.
