I did a search for this question, but could find nothing. So apologies if this subject has been covered.

Background:
I am new to SXS and have a Honda Pioneer 500. Because of the heavy volcanic dust where I ride and cold weather I have installed a full Hardcoat Windscreen and Fabric Rear Panel with clear plastic, back window.
I want to keep the plastics on these pristine and clear and not use products that could damage them.

Question:
After I ride, I wash the dust off and chamois dry. But the front and back screens are still spotty. Is there a product that is safe to use on them to polish them up and even help them shed some of the fine dust?

Thanks.

Use Jeep soft top window polish. About the best thing you can get since it’s basically keep soft top windows...

I have used Plexus for 3 years now and everybody always asks me if I got a new S x S. I use it on the plastic fenders and hood also. Great stuff!

Plexus every so often on the entire plastics on the machine. In between I spray off all mud and dirt with a hose or pressure washer and use gallon jug of Rain-X auto window washer in a hand spray bottle. Use it regularly and water, dirt, grime rinses off really easily. Hasn’t hurt my plastics, hardcoat, or isinglass.

As the owner of seven aircraft, I can tell you it is of the upmost importance that you NEVER try to clean your windshield when there is any debris on it. After you do have it clean, the kitchen product known as Clear View works very well on your windshield and any plastic surfaces. Also I have used the kitchen product known as Pledge it works very well also. Pledge gets rid of the minute scratchers and eliminates the halos when driving into the sun.

Try Flitz...
It works great on the plastic and gives it a rain repellent affect similar to rainy. Flits also polished out scratches and keeps it looking like new.
