Scratches in Glass?

It's been a while now, but ever since I got window tint installed I noticed a bunch of scratches in the back glass towards the top. The tint shop swears they didn't cause the scratches, I don't believe them (and will never go there again) but I guess it doesn't matter.

Any suggestions on how remove or conceal these scratches?? Please help!

I'm curious about scratches on the glass too, I have a few light scratches on my windshield that are annoying. I've read about some solutions that temporarily fill it up with something clear but you have to re-do it every 6 months or so - even that I'd welcome.

U can try polishing compound... Try Meguiars Ultra Compound... It starts corse but breaks down after a bit to micro polish so you are not left with hazy glass

I have been there, a tint place ruined my passenger side door panel on a previous car, funny how they completely denied it but the tint installers tool fix perfectly into the holes he made luckily it was covered under warranty for another problem still a pain in the *** dealing with some of these places.

So how bad are these scratches if you can see them while driving your car, how is the tint job look

What kind of tool are they using? usually its just an exacto knife, a razor blade and a squeegy... what were they using that was hard enough to scratch your glass???
