I've got some scratches on a windshield of mine. Could anyone recommend a polish or method for scratch removal?

I like Klasse All in One. It will remove fine swirl marks but not deep scratches.

Try Novus products. http://www.novuspolish.com/

Depending on the depth of the scratches there are two ways of doing this. If the scratches are very light they should come out using Autosol metal polish or Mequiars plastic polish / scratch remover. If they are deeper start with 400 / 600 waterpaper and rub in the direction of the scratches and as they start disappearing progress to 800 - 1000 - 1200 until the plastic / perspex starts going clear again (lots of elbow grease and patience) and then finish off with Autosol / Mequiars polish - a variable speed lightweigt buffing machine helps a lot - to do all by hand is a mission.

Thanks, I am wondering if it is going to be possible to get rid of these scratches though. Some of them are pretty deep. The windshield does it's job (and does it pretty well) of keeping the wind ofn me so for the time being that little project is on the back burner.

IF it is a polycarbonate screen, there isn't much out there that will remove scratches, deep or not. Don't ask how I know............

Please do not keep us in suspense

I cut down the polycarbonate screen on my Yamaha cruiser several years ago and, well, I'm still seeing the few scratches I put in it at the time. I can also tell you that it doesn't like to be cut with an ordinary bandsaw which is why it has those scratches.
