What would anyone recommend to clean the plastic back window with to get the scratches out? I used to have a Miata and I had this cleaner that made the plastic look like new for about 30days. I can't find it anymore.

I like Meguiar's #10 and #17. One is "Clear Plastic Cleaner" and the other is "Clear Plastic Polish", but I forget which is which. The cleaner is for removal of the scratches and heavy clouding, the polish is to finish the job.

Be sure to use a product designed for clear plastic for the regular "remove the road grime" cleaning. Many people here swear by a product called Plexus; I've been using something called Plasti-Clear that I bought at a boat store.

Some scratches may be too deep for any polish. Honda even tried polishing mine for me. I ended up replacing it.

Plexus works great. Get it at a motorcycle or boat shop.

Plexus is great for regular maintenance (weekly) but a good quality plastic polish and cleaner (Meguiar's or 3M) are a must. I have some clouding and light scratches that Plexus can't remove.

A high-quality wax also works wonders. I had it done when I had my car detailed once and the window looked like new.
