Scratch Proof Glass?

Question

Hi,

I own a shop with a glass panel front which has recently been exploited by vandals who have scratched tags into it. I have employed people to buff it out but the cost and result is not as effective as I would have liked. Do you know if there is any vandal proof (scratch proof) glass available on the market? Cost is not a huge issue as it will be worth it in the long run to have shiny clean glass at the front of my store.

I want to keep the glass there because spray paint and marker tags can be easily removed from glass (often with your finger) as it is an impermeable surface. Scratches seem to be the new medium for these thugs and I would love the problem to go away, so any help is greatly appreciated.

There is truely no scratch proof glass on scratch resistant, they have to be able to cut it somehow. Even bulletproof glass can be marred.

Unless this is happen during business hours I would recommend a security drop fence (gate) to block the front of your shop. They could reach in with paint but it would be hard reach and scratch. If they tag the fence it rolls up during the day anyway and can be cleaned at convience.
