- A light scratch is defined as a scratch is barely noticeable or that you can see in the sun but is not deep enough to run your fingernail into. For a scratch that is barely noticeable, you may be able to get the scratch out by using a small amount of furniture polish applied to a dry cloth. Using the dry cloth and furniture polish, buff the window clean and you may notice your scratch fade away. For a light scratch all you may need to repair it is toothpaste. It is best to use either tooth paste that comes in a cream or paste than in a gel form. The first thing that you will need to do is carefully clean the glass, and then dry it with a lint-free cloth. Then you will need to coat the cream or paste toothpaste along the length of the scratch, and be sure to wipe off any extra that you may have put on. Allow the paste to dry, and then wipe off the paste and you should notice that the scratch vanishes along with the toothpaste.

Mix these two ingredients together until they form a paste, then apply the mixture along the scratch and allow it to dry. Then using a clean lint-free cloth, buff the window clean. If the scratch is still very noticeable you may need to use professional scratch removal systems.
