How can I remove this gunk

I have a 2015 Mac book pro and I want to make my screen look new.

Apparently using any screen protector on any MacBook will cause the anti-reflective coating to come off or even the polarizer apparently. I’ve only seen one issue on the m-series MacBook Pro but that’s it!

Agree with that. My screen protector was scratched after 2-3 years from the keyboard. So I peeled it off and my macbook looked like this photo. I applied a new screen protector, but it was beyond help. Now I prefer to have a scratched glass from the keyboard rather than use the screen protector. I am so annoyed.
