Dave,
Great work!!
Please tell me the secret to getting the scratched glass clear again??? I am assuming that you have put mint glass from another donor RS2000 into your model?? Or is there some way to get that original scratched window glass looking like new without replacing it???

I use a Q-tip with some clear floor finish. Here in the states I found Pledge Floor Care.
Clean old windows first, apply clear finish. Presto, looks nice again. That's the same before and after windows.
