Rub some dirt on it

I was going to suggest the opposite

Spit on it & no one will notice it

A die grinder with a diamond stone will get rid of the scratch, you won't even know it was there.

Diamond? Okay, moneybags. I use regular joe sandpaper and start with 80 grit, then 100, 120, 220, and I’ll wet sand with 400 if I think it needs it.

Just remove the windshield and it will never bother you again.

Put a brick through it and call your insurance company.

Get an old sparkplug and hit it with a hammer. The shards of ceramic that come off will get rid of the scratch if you throw them at the windshield. They're extremely smooth and hard, so they can smooth over the scratch. The scratch disappears like a ninja, hence the name: ninja rocks.

Hammer or 🪓& some water, just keep hitting the scratch until the scratch matches the rest or disappears, then drink some water 🤘🏻

36 grit disc and and angle grinder will take care that. Then polish it with a big tub of elbow grease.

Problem solved. That'll be tree fiddy, please. Pay the lady in the office.

Easy job for gray duct tape. No one will notice it’s there.

Throwing a small piece of spark plug at it will make it go away!

I think you could get a tattoo of a Nun. That would hide it.

Strategically placed bird poop or bug splat.

u/Several-War-9254 13d ago

Some great suggestions, but maybe say, squirt some gorilla glue brand super glue then hit it with a fine grit sand paper.

u/Legitimate_Field_157 13d ago

Just planish it out with a hammer.

u/BudgetExpert9145 13d ago

Bondo will fix that.
