Scratch repair?

Is it possible to repair scratches on glass. I got suckered on an old Oceanic tank. It was dirty when I bought it so didnt see the two large scratches about 5 inches long right in the front. 1 inside and 1 outside.
Its a really solid tank and I want to use it but the scratches will drive me nuts. Any way to repair?
 
On the outside, clear nail polish. If it comes out with that wavy look, simly remove and reapply till you get the clean look.

It can be done but it's a lot of work and the tank has to be dry. It's usually not worth the effort unless it's a really expensive tank. We did it on a 1500 gallon tank at the zoo and it took a long time to polish it.

How deep is the inside scratch?

They are pretty thin but I'm sure my dad is not gonna be a fan of draining it lol

I imagine it's probably a lot like cutting a polishing the clear coat on a car

Thanks anyways
