you cant, its a glossy panel, not a glass covered display

 

You will have to replace the whole panel (which is not too hard to do and they are easily available)

 

When you order them you can specify what panel you want

the only one that it can be replaced by is the 1080p matte, which is a downgrade, but i dont like glossy :\

Unlikely, as a matte panel is just a glossy panel with a matte "screen protector", and while you can convert a matte display to a glossy one (usually), you can't go from glossy to matte (sandpaper wont do the trick )

 

see if you can find the matter film anywhere (poor matte films can introduce a grainy quality to the screen, so be careful)

for a 13" laptop I prefer 1080p tbh, its a very high pixel density and no scaling issues (also not glossy)

 

maybe you can get a matte screen protector to reduce glare,

 

glossy monitors are cleared but yeah for sometihng portable/travelling glossy is not great
