Plastx with a terry towel and some elbow grease does wonders. It removed haze, and restores the plexi back to a glass like shine and visibility.

Is there a price difference when compared to buying authentic from Kings? Any difference you can share between the authentic mugen plexiglass and the one under the EVS Tuning brand? Also, does the EVS Tuning product come with seals?

Thanks

we used to offer replacement window but no longer do. the authentic one seems to be less prone to scratches. comes with the seal kit, the one we used to sell was just the window.

Authentic window has a scratch resistant coating, so plastic polish only works on lightly hazy/damaged windows. My window was so UV damaged that the scratch resistant coating began to flake off, in which case polish wasn't going to do the trick, so i had to have the coating sanded down and the window polished. Without the coating, the window is now prone to scratch easier (duh) and gets hazy easier too. Mine still isn't perfect so i will likely buy a replacement Mugen window kit which should last a good amount of time.

Haven't tried the plastx route quite yet. Was just thinking of buying a new one. Does the peeling on mine look similar to others?

Mine looked worse. I tried plastix with a terry cloth and ended up with something that looks like your pic above lol. I guess that was an improvement and more plastix sessions are needed?
