Key Benefits of Professional Glass Polishing
1. Cost-Effective
Replacing a shopfront can cost hundreds or even thousands of pounds.
Glass polishing costs a fraction of that — making it ideal for businesses of all sizes.
2. Time-Saving
While replacing glass can take days or weeks (especially custom panels), polishing is typically completed within a few hours, keeping your business running smoothly.
3. Environmentally Friendly
Polishing restores existing glass instead of sending old panes to landfill.
No manufacturing, no waste — a far greener solution.
4. No Permits or Closures Needed
Glass replacement often requires planning permissions, temporary closures, or external contractors.
Polishing does not — we work while your shop stays open.
Acid-Etch Graffiti
Acid-etch graffiti is one of the most destructive forms of vandalism. Unlike paint or marker graffiti, this type of damage is caused by hydrofluoric acid, which burns permanently into the glass, leaving a frosted, white mark that looks like paint but is far more severe.
​
Because the damage penetrates the surface, it cannot simply be wiped away. The only effective removal method is to sand the glass below the depth of the etch, followed by multiple refining stages and specialist polishing compounds to restore full clarity.
​
At React & Restore, we specialise in the removal of acid-etched graffiti from shopfront windows and commercial buildings. Our trained technicians use advanced, industry-leading techniques to eliminate the damage in a matter of hours, offering a fast, cost-effective alternative to full glass replacement.
For years, businesses had no choice but to replace affected windows — an expensive, disruptive, and time-consuming process. Our professional glass polishing service provides an efficient, affordable solution that restores your glass and keeps your business looking its best.
