    The main picture on the homepage clearly states the job is "another fabrication debris" repair job. Look at the pics! It's pretty obvious what it is from the pics.

    I would like to see this done myself. I'd also want to know the cost of the restoration and if the surface was guaranteed to be free of any FD after the process.

    No one sells anything that can repair fabrication debris. Ask fields-construction-service.html">dan fields. He should know.

    Call them up and find out what the rates are. Maybe they can make a demo showing fab debris. Would it even show up in video?

    I have to admit way back when I first saw this I was a bit dubious but now knowing how the Glass Renu system works I am a believer!

    So Tony, have you used your Glass Renu system on any fabricating debris scratch removal, or seen it done yet?

    Haha, this thread was started before most of us here ever heard of GlassRenu. the technology is sound and fab debris is just like any other scratch. The only additional concern most people think about is the possibility of dislodging more glass fines causing more scratching. If you are working on a window with fd spread over the entire glass in several spots then a total resurfacing is in order. If it is a case where the person noticed the scratching occurring and stopped scraping immediately then I'm pretty sure concentrating on that one area, going through the several steps including feathering out the edges and polishing will do the trick to remove all the scratches without causing additional scratches. And remember, once a piece of glass has been restored, there will never be another issue with fd where the repair was done. And if it was a complete resurface, then the entire pane will never have fd issues ever again.

    I have been interested in getting this system this fall but I see that the $1500.00 version(area specific) is no longer available here.
