Glass scratch removal
Glass scratch removal

Graffiti & acid damage
Graffiti & acid damage

Hard water stains & mineral deposits
Hard water stains & mineral deposits
Mineral runoff and calcium buildup can permanently stain glass. We use professional-grade compounds and polishing systems to remove mineral etching and restore clear glass.
Why NYC trusts our glass restoration process
Distortion-free results
Improper polishing can leave waves or a “funhouse mirror” effect. Our technicians use flat, multi-stage abrasive discs to help preserve optical clarity and avoid lensing.
Major cost savings
Replacing custom high-rise glass or storefront panels can involve access equipment, permits, and expensive glass. Restoration can save up to 70% compared to replacement.
In-place restoration
No overnight board-up or full glass removal. We restore the glass in place, reducing dust, security risks, and downtime.
White-glove isolation
Glass polishing creates fine slurry. We protect floors, walls, and furniture with drop cloths and work in shoe covers to keep your interior clean throughout the process.
