When I bought my 01 ZR it had the low black Team Arctic windshield on it
The problem is it seems like something was spilled on it
and the finish seems not great
the inside is a nice gloss like it should be but the outside is
Can I buff this out
or sand and polish it back to a high gloss aka like I normal windshield or am I SOL?
Here is a pic of what I am talking about

Try the Cat Hood and Windshield Polish/Cleaner.
It's amazing what it can do with a little elbow grease. :div20:

The Turtle Wax Scratch Remover stuff is getting good reviews...for windshields and hoods.
Good luck.

Freez, chuck it and get a new one. You spent the money on the machine you've been waiting for, make it perfect. It looks like something got on it that's eating it away.

I already got a new windshield 2 weeks ago, a high Sportech one :cn:
But I wanted to try to make this one look good
aka have a high and a low windshield
Good news the Turtle Wax Rubbing compound did an excellant job at removing the fallout that was all over the windshield and now is back to its glossy self :div20:
But the stuff that looks like some sort of liquid that was spilled did not all come out
So I might just paint it instead Yellow

looks kinda like pine pitch

, do you know if the sled sat outside? maybe before painting it you could try some prepsol and see if that works...

The guy I bought the sled from had it in a barn with 4 other sleds
I am beginning to think it was bird shit that sat a bit too long thus leaving the streak :cn:
But as for the rest of the shield it seems only it was affected as the cab itself had no stuff on it
