I know what you are talking about...it's a sort of silvery black mark. Usually there is a scratch in the glass underneath it as well, but black/silvery mark makes the underlying scratch really stand out. I've not had much luck getting those off; even muriatic won't do it. It's part of why you see so many people digging with sticks or antlers. Unfortunately when I dig those are not practical but I use a "2-prong" (manure fork with 2 outside tines cut off) that enables me to be a little more surgical and thus scratch my shovel on less bottles.I'm not talking about scratches. When a bottle has a metal implement rub against it, it leaves a streak of metal on the glass. This is actual metal adhering to the glass as far as I can tell. I was able to lighten up a few with a magic eraser but not actually get rid of them entirely. I was hoping someone had a trick. I might try a little muriatic acid of something like that but figured I should ask the community before pulling out the chemicals.
That's because it's a scratch. A very light scratch, which is damage to the surface of the glass.I know what you are talking about...it's a sort of silvery black mark.
