You can't, crazy glue will fog windows no matter what and the fogging doesn't just come off, you honestly shouldn't use any type of CA or super glue for clear parts.

In future, use a white glue like Elmers or clear parts cement to glue windows in, it will dry clear and won't ruin your windows.

This wont make it go away completely, but may help make it less noticeable.
Put some vegtable oil (Wesson/cooking oil) on it. Just a light coat over the fogging and wipe the excess off.
I used this on the headers of my 32 ford and the fog disappeared.

Interesting... I'll try this on the windshield of my 67 Crovette 427... I was gluing the frame to the body and I haven't touch the glass with the CA but a misty foggy thing apear ruining a bit of realism. I'm sure it's vapor from the glue, just didn't know how to get rid of it because it won't be an easy thing to rub n buff if I'm going with the compound solution.

Sand the window gown with 2000 grit wet/dry, and then polish it.

It'll take away all the fog. The outcome will depend on your ability to polish. The higher to go with the wet/fry, then less you'll have to polish aswell.

Use surgical spirit on a cotton bud and the whiteout will disapear.

Schemo,
1. Use a Future/Kleer to cover the "frosting" and make the glass transparent again. Just brush the future over the entire glass. It can be cleaned up using Windex.
2. Do NOT use "superglue" to attach windows UNLESS it is the fog-free kind.

hth,

Congrats....you just chemically etched the plastic with crazy-glue.

Just giving you a hard-time. Take the advice of the other members and next time use a less harsh glue for transparent piece. Kristal Klear, Elmers etc.

i think i will try this option, as i have NOVUS 1 & 2 to buff it and polish out after sanding.

thanks for all the input.
