Not sure how bad your semi deep scratches are, but I tried to remove some that I could feel with my fingernail and failed.
I bought a scratch removal kit with the sanding disks and powder and worked on one area for hours and hardly removed anything.

This is my experience as well. I would never attempt again.

Is the tank empty? If so, look up a company named Glass Renu and find a local company. They can get out some serious scratches but it isn't cheap. I just had the front panel done on my 120 and I can't believe the scratches they got out.

Won't work on glass. Windshields are glass/plastic laminates. It's a totally different beast all together.
