We use this on aircraft windshields, it is designed and formulated for plastic and lexan. And at $35,000.00 a pop (per side) don't get caught using anything else, or you will be looking for a new job.

Bug Slide is a new product out ..... takes bugs off with no effort. You can use Bug Slide on everything.

Hey Glider I used some pledge on my bike and just realized that I spent alot of money on alot of cleaning junk that I dont need.

MMM that pledge sure is some good poop

I have used Pledge and Plexus, on Aircraft windshield in the Bush in Alaska for over 30 years and both work. I have found that Pledge can leave a residue that attracts dust. The guy up here use Plexus and another product called 210 plexiglass cleaner on the those spinning oil leaks (helicopters) and for sure they cost a lot more then our HD windshields.

Side note; anyone use the Klock Werks flared windshield on a Batwing??

Glider, an old dog can learn new tricks. I read your suggestion to use Pledge and decided to try it. Living in Florida you always wash off the grit on your windshield first. That grit contains some sand and can put a lot of swirls on the surface. After washing and drying I sprayed on the Pledge and WOW what a difference it made. Thanks, Glider. Fossil

Yep, haven't heard of anyone that tried it that didn't like it. Sure does the job and fast too. You'll even find that bugs don't stick as bad too after you use it.
