bongobobny Posted July 16, 2016 Share #2 Posted July 16, 2016 Buy a nice new F4 Customs screen! let's face it, windshields do not last forever, especially the stock ones! The F4 is a very durable replacement... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Swallows Posted July 16, 2016 Share #3 Posted July 16, 2016 I use a polish manufactured by GRC chemicals which is what aircraft use on their windscreens. It imparts a minor cutting, along with polishing action removing minor imperfections and nothing sticks to it. It's been suggested Lemon "Pledge" is a great cleaner and it will fill minor imperfections but it's a temporary thing. Used to use the product all the time polishing homebuilt aircraft canopy's till I went into the Navy and found this stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogman Posted July 16, 2016 Share #4 Posted July 16, 2016 A suggestion, when you do get the swirls out or a new windshield don't clean it in swirl motions. Clean it from bottom to top in a straight up motion so you won't get any swirls. Best of luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gggGary Posted July 17, 2016 Share #5 Posted July 17, 2016 A quality car polish does a lot of good. I have "recovered" some pretty bad shields with meguiar's cleaning wax, if it's over all bad I use the car buffer and wool pad, an occasional spritz of water from an old windex bottle so it doesn't get too dry while polishing. buff then apply high quality car wax after for best results.

djh3 Posted July 17, 2016 Share #6 Posted July 17, 2016 We used plexus in the air force on our windshields. I have used it on bike windshields and its the same stuff they sell to deglaze yellowing headlights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Swallows Posted July 17, 2016 Share #7 Posted July 17, 2016 We used plexus in the air force on our windshields. I have used it on bike windshields and its the same stuff they sell to deglaze yellowing headlights. We used to get that in the Navy also and it did work well. It went on like a liquid wax and you let it haze then buffed it off IIRC. The stuff I now use is a spray goes on white, dries clear then buffed off. Does a great job on plastic canopy's of light aircraft which usually don't use glass windscreens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
