Scratch on glass dining table?

Hobo17

Don't suppose the glass lifts out, so you could just replace the glass rather than the whole table?

No,unfortunately not. I immediately asked that as it was my 1st thought. The table is 'moulded' for want of a better word, the base is glass aswell and its all one unit.

Would this be any help?
I am sure there are loads of products out there but whitening toothpaste seems to be made of a fine grade of abrasive material and is recommended.

I have a glass dining table, and the toothpaste trick worked for me on a couple of small scuffs/scratches.
I think it just depends how bad/deep the scratch is.
Hope it works for you,
good luck

I'm going to move this thread over to old style, if the toothpaste doesn't work you may get more tips there

Jeweller's Rouge would work if the scratch isn't too bad.

Glasweld is a company that does scratch removal from glass, usually on motor vehicles but can be done on any form of glass.

As a scratch is material removed from the surface, there are only two options. Blend it in by abrasives so it's not as noticeable, but will affect a larger area, or fill the scratch in to bring it level and polish it down again. That sounds damned expensive, but I've no idea as to cost.

Some great suggestions in here already. We do have an older thread with some ideas as well so have read and I will merge it later - once you get some more input.

I hope you are able to sort it out, it must have been terribly embarassing! Nice to hear people caring rather than just saying to heck with it :A

Let us know what works.
