    The point is that there should be water between the paper and the rubbing surface.
    The surface is supposed to become dull, of course, in addition, in the places of scratches, it must be ground evenly to the depth of the scratches - so that they disappear.

    Before the operations that take place here, it is best to make a test on an ordinary piece of glass. I am convinced that even 3000 sandpaper will effectively scratch not only gorilla glas but even a real gorilla.

    Thanks to everyone for help, a good polishing paste for K2 cars and microfiber was enough and after 5 minutes of polishing I left it for an hour for the paste to "melt" into the display and then polish it dry. Effect ?? Cool. I will not close the topic, so maybe I'll find out something interesting :)

    I am also very unconvinced about sandpaper. Once my uncle wanted to sand the scratched glass from the display of the video player and he dulled it so that you could hardly see anything. Nothing else helped but replacing the glass. I will add that the paper, if I remember correctly, was probably P2000 .

    Well, I have already polished glass reflectors and it is done exactly as I say - even smaller splinters can be evened out. There is more work with glass than with varnish, but that's because it's harder. Just fast from the phone is so small that it will go two times anyway. That is why I also write that a mechanical polisher would be useful, which will remove the matting in a jiffy - although if someone has a lot of time, they will finally polish them with a handkerchief.

    I'm digging up, but it's important.
    I tried this method with sandpaper on Gorilla Glass 2 and only got into trouble ... This advice does not make sense. I lost a lot of time, money and nerves. In the end, I somehow polished with Tempo paste - the effect was poor and I glued the foil. Let's say it looks like it somehow. Fortunately, I can replace the touch inexpensively, so I just wait until it is after the warranty and I will do it.
    I read that the only way to get glass is cerium oxide. And it is best to buy a new touch or stick the foil on - although there was foil before the polishing, and there were still scratches that refracted the image (lens effect).
    I think that the hard glass of the smartphone is better to let go of when it comes to any polishers.

    There are films on the screen that blend in with the scratches. I bought one once and it worked to a great extent.
    But what's the point of having a scratch-resistant screen and sticking foil on it? I think that if someone chooses such a screen, it is not to stick a protective film.


    It makes sense, let me give you an example. I have a gorilla 5 display in P10 and my phone was scratched from the plastic cover (original) which wiped small scratches on the edge of the phone that annoy me now. By the way, is it possible for theoretically hard glass to scratch the plastic cover?
