Question scratches CRT TV

classicsamus87:
my crt has some scratches and i need a product to apply with fabric on the glass and remove the scratch
S. Petrukhin:
Try an immersion gel - it fills in cracks and scratches, has the same refractive index as glass and therefore hides defects-no change in density. It is inexpensive, does not require any special application, if it does not help , it is not a pity.

If that doesn't work (and the scratch is not deep) you can get abrasive polishing compound that will work on glass, but you will want a power tool to do it, a polishing wheel on an electric drill will work. It works by gently grinding away glass to smooth the surface so it takes a good deal of mechanical effort to accomplish.

What's the stuff they used in microscope slides? Canada Balsam?

Do they still make it? Sounds harmless and cheap.
james_s:
The stuff I've used is called polishing rouge or jeweler's rouge, it comes as a bar that has a hard waxy consistency.
