The Disney Hotel Challenge: When Scratch Removal Goes Wrong
Even Mickey Mouse can’t fix scratched glass when it happens at the happiest place on earth! At this iconic hotel in Anaheim, CA, the blue glass windows told a story of a job gone wrong. A competitor had been hired to remove scratches and polish the glass, but the results were far from perfect.
Instead of crystal-clear glass, the hotel was left with noticeable haze and persistent swirls. The most frustrating part? These imperfections were easily visible from the ground, despite being located on the 8th floor!
So when Bob Park from Western Glass Restoration called us to fix their scratched glass job, we had one thing on our mind:
🎤 “Alright stop, collaborate and listen
Unscratch is back with a brand new vision
Something grabs ahold of us tightly
We restore glass daily and nightly
Will it ever stop? Yo, we don’t know
But we’ll make those swirls and haze just go
If there’s a problem, yo—we’ll solve it
Check my Makita while my crew revolves it!” 🎶
Okay, maybe we didn’t sing it—but we definitely delivered. When Bob Park from Western Glass Restoration called us to fix their scratched glass job, we knew exactly what had happened.
This is a common outcome when inexperienced crews attempt glass polishing in Anaheim. Most glass restoration companies leave consistent swirls and haze because they stop too early in the process. Unfortunately, many glass polishing contractors then try to “over-polish” those imperfections, which leads to a new problem: optical distortion.
The Problem: Visible Haze and Swirls After Polishing
Most glass restoration companies leave consistent swirls and haze because they stop too early in the process. Unfortunately, many glass polishing contractors then try to “over-polish” those imperfections, which leads to a new problem: optical distortion.
The incomplete glass polishing from the previous company left the glass looking dull and damaged. It is crucial to address these inadequacies to ensure a smooth, flawless surface. Without proper technique, glass retains remnants of scratches or blemishes, compromising both its integrity and aesthetic appeal.
Why Do Competitors Leave Haze and Swirls?
In the world of glass restoration, the physics are simple: Where there is haze, there are swirls. Where there are swirls, there are scratches. If you can see haze in resurfaced glass, it’s proof that scratches and swirls remain beneath the surface.
Our Solution: A Better Approach to Abrasives
One solution we developed to eliminate this resurfacing issue is simple: use premium abrasives throughout the entire process. We have moved away from the industry standard of starting with aggressive grits.
Specifically, we rarely use 80 grit silicon carbide on most glass resurface projects. Why? Because an overly aggressive grit does substantial subsurface damage to the glass. This damage is significantly more difficult to perfect without leaving haze visible from below.
Precision Over Power
We now utilize a more controlled restoration process that removes scratched glass quickly while using a much finer abrasive. This shift in technique has almost completely eliminated the likelihood of residual swirls and haze after a project.
Furthermore, we pair this with a highly aggressive glass polishing formulation. By combining a larger particle size with specific additives, we achieve a faster polish step alongside a near-flawless finish.
Since we specialize in high-end, widespread glass resurfacing projects, our clients expect all scratches removed—without any haze or swirls. This is what we deliver, time and time again. In addition to our meticulous resurfacing, we ensure that the properties of tempered glass are fully understood and utilized in every project. This type of glass not only offers enhanced strength but also provides superior heat resistance. Our team is committed to using materials that meet the highest standards, ensuring lasting quality and satisfaction for our clients.
