Question Winshield

I have two scratches in my front windshield. There both about ¼ wide and a 1½ long, they are not deep there are from the wiper blade. Has any one ever fixed a window scratch? I know the have a type of wax and a spray out there that is said to take out scratches. My only other option is taking it to a auto glass dealer and have them buffed out and that will be around 35. It’s not even a guaranty that buffing them out will work; they even told me that with the heat of the buffer I have a chance of ruining the window.
I would just ignore them but they’re right in my view and its very annoying.

What should I do?

If it interferes with your field of vision, do it. If it doesn't work, replace it.

I should get that kit. I was grinding in the shop and didn't cover the windshield. Those little sparks left pits all over my perfect windshield.
