Is your glass scratched, hazy, or covered in handling marks? At Lion City Glass, we provide specialist glass scratch removal and glass cleaning services in Singapore — polishing out scratches, swirl marks, and surface damage that ordinary cleaning cannot fix. Our work covers HDB flats, condominiums, landed homes, shopfronts, hotels, and commercial offices island-wide, restoring glass to its original optical clarity without the cost or disruption of panel replacement.
What Is Glass Polishing?
Glass polishing is a precision technique using cerium oxide compounds and specialised buffing equipment to remove surface-level scratches, swirl marks, haze, and light abrasion from glass panels. Unlike replacement, polishing preserves your existing glass while eliminating visible damage — the most cost-effective solution for Singapore property owners.
Types of Scratches We Remove
- Light surface scratches from keys, tools, or debris contact
- Vandalism swirl marks on shopfront or office glass
- Handling marks left during construction or renovation
- Haze and micro-scratches from improper cleaning with abrasive materials
- Wiper blade marks on facade glass panels
Our Glass Polishing Process
Every glass polishing job begins with a thorough site inspection to assess scratch depth and glass type. Our trained technicians apply a multi-stage polishing method using professional-grade cerium oxide, rotary buffers, and optical assessment tools to achieve clarity restoration without distorting the glass surface.
- Site assessment — We inspect scratch depth and glass condition
- Scratch evaluation — We test if scratches are within polishable range
- Polishing compound application — Using cerium oxide on a rotary pad
- Multi-stage buffing — Progressively removing scratches and surface damage
- Optical clarity check — Final inspection against natural light
- Protective wipe-down — Cleaning residue for a pristine finish

Glass Cleaning Services in Singapore — Beyond Ordinary Cleaning
Most Singapore homes and businesses hire cleaners for routine glass wiping, but ordinary cleaning cannot fix scratches, hardwater stains, acid etching, or the cloudy haze that builds up from years of improper cleaning with abrasive cloths. That is where specialist glass cleaning services like ours come in: we use cerium oxide compounds, rotary buffers, and purified-water methods to physically restore the glass surface to optical clarity.

Frequently Asked Questions About Glass Polishing
Can all scratches be polished out of glass?
Shallow to medium-depth scratches can typically be removed without replacement. Deep gouges may require panel replacement. We always assess first before quoting.
Will polishing distort the glass?
When done correctly by trained professionals, glass polishing does not distort the glass surface. We use optical testing throughout the process to ensure perfect results.
How long does glass polishing take?
Most residential panels take 30–60 minutes per panel. Commercial jobs are quoted based on scale. We provide time estimates during the site assessment.
Is glass polishing cheaper than replacement?
Yes — glass polishing typically costs 60–80% less than panel replacement and avoids the downtime and structural work associated with replacement.
