Glad someone finally mentioned the flame polishing, it's amazing on edges anyway. I'm not so sure about tempered glass windows myself. Having worked for a builder of high performance heavy weather craft, I've seen at least 2 glass windshields disintegrate from water impact. Glass is nice in the long run for a durable finish, but if your concerns are mainly impact... I'll take the poly.. (think about hitting a one foot square of 3/16 or 1/4 glass with a hammer, or the typical 1/2 poly with the hammer.... my money's on the poly!)
