Default rear plastic window

hey guys,
I kinda feel bad that everytime I have to post questions and let you guys answer my questions...
but anyways...i have a 2000 s2k, and i believe it is everybody's problem. My rear window is foggy and cannot see at all. Is there any other way to polish it or buff it besides changing a new one?

No problem Nicku...this is a generally helpful community (especially since many recognize that our search engine sucks).

There are a couple of Meguires products that can help: PlastX and also Mirror Glaze Plastic Polish.

Also, once you have it polished clear...a product called Plexus will help maintain the clarity if used regularly.

BTW...when you are ready, you can upgrade to a glass rear window top. Check into a Robbins top.

Alternately you could use Novus #1 plastic cleaner and Novus #2 plastic polish. I've had great results with these.

Plexus is the best. Don't waste your money on other cleaner/polisher.

I've had success with the Blue Magic cleaner/scratch remover. I quit using the polish though - too much glare but maybe that's just me.

Getting to all the corners on the inside is a real PITA!

And,once you get it clean and clear,protect it with static cling.

I completely disagree. We answer your questions because we are really bored.


But I will agree with you that the Meguiars PlastX works really well.
