ClearAll were called to a domestic address by a customer who needed scratched glass repair to 3 bi-fold doors due to multiple glass scratches, caused by a cleaner using a metal scraper incorrectly
Unfortunately the scraper had left the 3 bi-fold doors with numerous glass scratches to remove which were very noticeable, especially in the afternoon when the sun was on the glass showing just how badly scratched the bi-fold doors were
Luckily we know how to remove scratches from glass and in a matter of hours the bi-folds doors were as good as new!

Stage 1. Remove scratches from glass
*Although there are 3 scratched bi-fold doors we work them all as one completing each step on all 3 scratched bi-fold doors before moving on to the next step
Starting with our 2nd roughest grit sanding disc we remove the glass scratches, growing these areas as we cut until they join and become one area
We now sand the scratched glass bi-fold doors growing the area evenly so as not to distort the glass during the glass polishing process until all visible traces of the glass scratches are removed
The main focus of this stage of glass polishing is keeping the glass flat whilst we remove the glass scratches
Once we are happy with our area we move on the the next stage of scratched glass repair
Stage 2. Remove all traces of previous glass polishing process
We now sand the glass again but this time with a finer grit sanding disc
By now the glass scratches should be removed so the main focus of this stage is working the area evenly as one to guarantee the full removal of the previous stage whilst still keeping the glass flat so as not to distort it during the glass repair process
When we have gone over our area 2-3 times, not forgetting to slightly increase its size, we check that all traces of the previous glass polishing stage and all glass scratches are removed
Once we are happy with our area we move on to the next stage
Stage 3. Remove all traces of previous glass polishing process
We once again cut the glass but this time with an even finer grit cutting disc
As with the previous stage the glass scratches should be gone so the main focus of this stage is working the area evenly as one to guarantee the full removal of the previous stage whilst still keeping the glass flat so as not to distort it during the glass polishing process
When we have gone over our area 2-3 times, not forgetting to slightly increase its size, we check that all traces of the previous glass polishing stage and all glass scratches are removed
Once we are happy with our area we move on to the next stage
Stage 4. Remove all traces of previous glass polishing process
We now cut the glass for the final time, once again with an even finer grit cutting disc
The main focus of this stage is again working the area evenly as one to guarantee the full removal of the previous stage whilst still keeping the glass flat during the glass polishing process
When we have gone over our area 2-3 times, not forgetting to slightly increase its size, we check that all traces of the previous glass polishing stage and all glass scratches are removed
Once we are happy with our area we move on to the final stage, polishing
Stage 5. Polish the glass to restore clarity
We have now cut the glass to a point where it is fine enough to be polished
We now use a polishing pad and polish to remove the previous stage of the glass polishing process and bring the glass back to its original clarity
When we have gone over our area 2-3 times we check that all traces of the previous glass polishing stage and all glass scratches are gone
The job has now been completed
All scratches have been fully removed from the glass and all traces of the glass polishing process are gone
The once scratched bi-fold doors are once again back to their original scratch free condition and clarity, all in a matter of hours and at a fraction of the cost of replacement
