now and then the windows can get scratched, my T-tops have some scratches in them and I was wondering if there is a way to get them smooth again, or are they no good anymore?

yeah, get glass polish. Napa carries it. BE VERY CAREFUL when using a buffer. Don't stay in one spot to long or your glass will heat up and shatter.

If the t-tops are (not glass) you can use paint polish on them and get very good results.
