Windshield Cleaner
#1
What do you use to clean your windshield? I use Plexus but am looking for an alternate cleaner.

Hose, running water, sponge; then rain-x cleaner. Recently got some glass wax, an old school product with nice results.
In my tank bag I carry a microfiber towel and some spray from an optical joint - "free" sample. Picked up a box of safety glass cleaner towelettes from Bausch and Lomb and carry a few in my pocket.

Obviously I haven't discovered one solution that works for me.

I have the can of Honda Polish as well as Plexus. But honestly I find Plexus to do the best.

Car wash soap and water. If it's really bad, I'll drape a wet towel over the windscreen for an hour and then wipe it up. The nasty stuff will usually soften up and come right off. Once or twice a summer I'll give it (and the entire bike) a shot of Original Bike Spirits "Spray Cleaner and Polish" (aka "Honda Spray Polish"), or Plexus if I have any.

I've had good luck using the Honda Cleaner & Polish. My local dealer sells it for $5.39 a can.

That's how I do it too if the "stuff" is dry and hard. Let it soften and then wipe it off with soapy water to avoid the debris scratching the surface. I lightly damp it off with a shop towel.

Thanks Mike. I have a can of honda's cleaner and polish but haven't tried it on the windshield yet. I'll probably stick with Plexus, but geez it's pricey.

Someone put me onto 210 Plastic Cleaner. Works great, easy to use and does not leave a film.

I use some stuff called Prist, it's made for aircraft windshields.

Have a friend that owned a plane and was also a racer, he used it for his race car windshield. He gave me a can about 7 years ago and I'm still using it. Now that I now longer have a bike with a windshield I use it on my helmet visor.
