My TIme Pilot cocktail project is coming along nicely. Most of the paint issues under the glass have been fixed, except for a few spots right near the monitor, that I can't get at because they are UNDER some glued on smoked plexi.

But how do I get scratches out of the top of the glass?
 
If its real glass you can use some of that polishing compound you use for the car....just use the lightest they sell. There is a polish for plexiglass too!!!.....just do alittle at a time to see if it works and doesnt start clouding it up.
 
Do I polish that by hand, or get an attachement for my drill?

Yes, it is real glass.
 
I would do it by hand first.....you can buy a round polishing wheel for your drill.....if they are small very light scratches you might be able to get them out by hand...although would be work(elbow grease). The idea is not to over polish it....do alittle at a time till you see what happens...then take it from there.
