depends on how bad the scratch is....MOST likely, you will have to go to a glass repair shop.
but even then, I dont think they can repair a scratch caused by wipers....

not likely a DIY fix....

the only way to remove scratches is by removing layers of the surface.

so, when you said you can barely feel it, it still means its deep enough that you need to remove some of the surface....

did you fix the windshield wiper so that it doesnt do it again?
