Buffing Out Scratches On An iPhone Screen

Has anyone had any luck buffing out slight scratches on an iPhone screen? I have used Cerium Oxide in the past to buff slight scratches out of the glass on my car.


Any ideas are welcomed.

As long as the scratches do not interfere with use, leave them be. Any attempt to buff them out might do more than damage the coating and would probably result in Apple refusing to cover damage under the warranty. Most light scratches will be largely unnoticeable under a screen protector.
