Magical screen scratch removal spray...stuff?

Is there such thing? A spray or something to remove scratches on an android phone?

To be honest, I hate the look and feel of a screen protector. So big, plasticy and it made it seem like there was water inside it (air pockets or something that looked similar to water).

Any cool scratch removing problems out there?
 
It's magical, and it's on the same shelf as the left-handed elbow grease.

No, sorry, unless you have experience with something like grinding telescope mirrors, you're just going to have to have the glass replaced.

(The air pockets under a plastic screen protector are - you're not going to believe this - specs of dust. The bubble is about 100 times as large as the spec. You actually need some really cheap transparent tape (the stuff with the really weak glue) to pick up all the little specs of dust on the screen before you put the protector on it.)

The other alternative ic a tempered glass shield. A few manufacturers make them - look on Amazon. They're very thin, but pretty scratch resistant. (And more expensive than the plastic ones, but some people prefer them. I use the 3 for $5 plastic ones, and, aside from the 3 dust specs I missed, I'm fine with them.)
 
before touch screens arrived there was a great cream called Displex that would take the scratches out of everything, I used it on all my consoles and phone. However, it turns out that you can't use those creams on a touch screen so you either have to be super careful with the screen or try and get used to the protector.
 
Thanks for the info, guys. I never knew that was dust causing all those huge bubble looking things...Ridiculous! Lol..

I'm going to check out that link...
 
You just weren't applying it properly. You don't just slap on screen protectors. A properly applied screen protector shouldn't even be noticeable.
