Windshield scratch removal???

[deadeye]

I was wondering if anyone has fixed up a scratched up windshield? My windshield looks like someone ran the wipers without the rubber inserts in the wipers.

Some of the old guys I used to work with told me to try using very fine steel wool and metal polish. However, I have never seen anyone actually do that before.

So, if anyone has tried something with any kind of results lmk. I got time to burn trying something if it works, I just want to avoid having to foot the bill for new glass if I don't have to.
