Sorry about the windshield...but it is done, safety glass cannot be buffed,
polished or anything. A single edge razor, (with care) is very good for
removing stuck or caked on debris from both the windshield and the hub. Care
must be exercised not to scratch anything. Using ANY product that requires a
"sanding motion" will invariably have an abrasive component to it and this
is to be avoided unless you are goal is to use abrasives to accomplish the
task, ie: sanding or polishing, not cleaning. Use a bar of soap and rub a
little on the back of the prop, polish lightly to smooth it out, use your
finger to get a little in the holes or on the drive dogs. Any automotive
paste wax will do the same thing, more IS NOT better.

Scotchbrite pads contain fine particles of steel that will embed themselves
in your wood prop and will scratch your hub. I did not know Scotchbrite pads
contained steel particles. I had just replaced a cracked windshield in my
car and somehow got a real hard substance like sap right in my drivers field
of view. Regular glass cleaner would not get it off and I just happened to
see my box of Scotchbrite pads and grabbed one thinking it would get it off
easily. Well it pretty much did and it also scratched my windshield and now
I have a very annoying spot right in my line of sight. I know this is off KR
now but if anyone knows a remedy to get the scratches out of my new
windshield I would appreciate you letting mme know. Thanks
