Default Pretty pissed, need help/advice

Hey guys i have a problem, i was taking my girlfriend to work and we just left the driveway and we started arguing, long story.... either way we were 100ft from my driveway and I wasn't watching the road and was trying to stop her from throwing my cd's out the window, when i tagged a road sign leaving a minor surface scratch to my passenger side window, its a 6in" long white streak. not deep at all, i cant even feel it.
I was wondering if anyone knew of any products or home remedy's to remove this scratch. All advice would be great, yes I'm pretty picky i just don't like any scratches on the dodge
thanks guys

If it's not a real scratch in glass and just paint from the sign you can try lacquer thinner. If it is a scratch in the glass then I don't think it's fixable. I know a little trick that works with eye glasses though, you can spray furniture polish on them and let them sit overnight, then wipe off the polish and it fills the minor scratches. It's not a permanent fix, but sure makes them clearer for a couple days.

Take a razor blade and scrape it off. It's residue left from an aluminum sign, scraped on glass. The remaining residue will come off with Mothers Mag Polish, or any comparable polish.

I had a street sign (construction) blow over in a storm and land up against my SUV window, leaving the same mark.

It'll come off.....

If I were you I'd be a little more picky in my choice of girl friends.
