Default rear plastic window

Does anybody who lives in the Northern Va area know of a store that sells a polishing product that can take out the scratches on a rear plastic window. Everbody who has recommended a product buys theirs online.

Any motorcycle shop will have something like plexus or novus. Honda actually has one too but I don't know how much it costs.

Plexus for regular cleaning use.

Thanks, I went to Patriot Harley Davidson and picked up some Plexus. It worked great although it made the deeper scratches more noticeable; however, I can see much better out of the back window.

Looks like you got your answer & product.

Also, if you have not already done so, lay a towel in the "roof well" to protect the plastic window from constantly rubbing the plastic base of the roof well when the top is down. Muz also offers a great looking product tailored for the S2000 roof well area to do the same thing.

with Dave but you really do need a cleaner and polisher to take out the deeper scratches.. hence the 3M. Plexus only keeps it slightly visible

The novus really does work as it revived the 10 year old window on my Porsche. I'm not sure what the 3M product is but Meguiars also has one that works well I believe it is #10.

3M is a two step process, it was the original stuff I got back when I first got my car. You can get it at any Napa... This stuff has worked the best for me. Others have also used Meguir's.

I'm bringing my stuff to the mod day if you'll be there
