Mike,
NEVER, NEVER use windex on your plastic window. This and UV are the 2
main reasons for fogging. I don't know about the solution R. Johnson
called out but I might try that myself for some adhesive that has gotten
on B's window. There is a really good product that both Eastwood and
Moss carry called NOVUS. There are 3 levels of cleaners, 1 is a polish
and finish for a window with no damage. 2 is for minor scratches and
some hazing and 3 is for heavy scratches. Use as directed and they are
great.
Even a plastic window that came with B's old top was almost like glass
when I finished using 1 and 2.
