Thumbs up

I bought some of the Plexus Spray. I used it on the rear plastic window. It seemed to clean things up, but I still have spots all over the plastic. It just makes things clearer. I guess the spots must be in the plastic. Do you have the Plexus spray or gel? Maybe I need to scrub it. I just used a cloth and buffed it on. Can anybody help with this??? Is a glass rear window the only solution??

yeh I have some small crease spot circles and I'm sure those will never go away but they're small but I am anal....grrrr...

The plexus does clear evrything up no stains on my window or anything pretty clear, but I hate!!!!!!!!!!!! cleaning the inside of the window. If you don't do it right it looks all smeary and stuff from the outside and you keep doing it again and again....man thats a work out for your arms....

Greg Cherry is a pretty good dude. I had the original straps that were glued together and they ripped away from the velcro. I emailed him and he sent me his new version with the sewn on velcro.

I use everything except the noodle for my window. Plexus, Meguiars, straps, and tint. All of these things help protect my window. The tint probably helps most but the straps can't hurt. Xviper has a write up about tinting you rear plastic window to minimize creasing.

I've had good success with Meguiars #10 and #17. Whatever you use it will be an arm workout and there is no comfortable way to clean the inside but these products will clean your window quite well. You just have to keep at it and keep going over the window with clean cloths to remove the oxidisation and polish residue. I do mine roughly 3 to 4 times a year and it takes around an hour each time. My window is now 4 years old and still crystal clear.

I am using the Xviper tint mod too as well as a Muz roof well mat. My window looks great.

I bought an original (glued) from Greg (great seller) but after a couple of months, it broke. Greg replaced it immediately with the sewn version. Unfortunately, the wrinkle preventer worked on and off. Sometimes, it worked but sometimes it does not. For the past couple of weeks, I have it off and my top seems to fold correctly.
