1LtCAP 4,264 Posted February 28, 2023 wouldn't ya know it? sometimes i'm a dumbass. this is on my g19 that i carry(where/when legal of course). the other night, i noticed that the glass was dusty. so what does my dumb a$$ do? i stick my finger in there with a section of my tee shirt. and proceed to scratch the glass. dammit. the scratches are below the dot, but it feels like they're still scattering some of the green. i'll know for sure on my next range trip...but i strrongly suspect i just ruined it. also, if i put this in the wrong place(more than likely that i did, lol) feel free to move it.

Displaced Texan 11,757 Posted February 28, 2023 It won’t fix it, but you’ll have something to clean it with that won’t scratch it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
High Exposure 5,667 Posted February 28, 2023 “Cat Crap” does a pretty good job cleaning up light scratches like that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scorpio64 5,163 Posted February 28, 2023 Perhaps a lens scratch repair kit would fix it, maybe worth looking in to. If you wear glasses, wherever you get them, or any decent pharmacy should have it. 2 minutes ago, High Exposure said: “Cat Crap” does a pretty good job cleaning up light scratches like that.
