windshield scratches

Wish I took pics, on the 4 th of July I thought I would get rid of water spots on the windshield, I have some clr a chemical I got from the glass shop, in a hurry I applied
It to the entire windshiel and before my eyes the windshield started turning a milky white
That you couldn't see through O MY. It took me about a day using meguiers medium grit.
Got it to where it is ok,got rid of the wiper trails too but there is some distortion. I see a new windshield it the future
