64 cloudy windshield fix
I got lots of ideas on how to remove the clouds from my windshield and back glass.
Nothing worked until I went to a window tinter and got a name of a guy in the business.
he used a polish, (water soluble) a special pad and small high speed wheel.
My glass is like new.
I can give anyone the name, they are franchised or I can post the name if I am aloud.

Not rocket science. But it takes a bit of experience.
They use a jewlers rouge. You can warp the optics if done wrong. But theres is a fair amount of room for error.
Works on scratches and sandblasting. Will remove milkiness if not in the laminate.

You were very lucky to find a professional shop to tackle this. As I've mentioned I had my scratched windshield looked at by 3 different shops and they all backpedaled on touching it once they saw it was a classic vette.
One mobile guy pulled in the driveway wound down his window and as he was putting his van in reverse said, "No way am I touching that car!" and left.
As bad as distorting the windshield may be if you overheat the glass while polishing it then the jig is up....it will crack for sure...

Eastwood sells a kit that I've had sitting around for a few weeks. I've got a sandblasted and wiper scratched windshield on my '65 that I'm going to try it on. If it doesn't work, I'll replace the windshield...
