Default Lexan windscreen

When I bought my car, it had an aftermarket Muz windscreen on it. One thing that has always driven me crazy are a bunch of light swirls that are visible when you look at it closely. So I ask you, fellow W&W wackos, what's the best way to get rid of these? Muz website says its made of lexan (which is a 'polycarbonate resin thermoplastic, whatever the hell that is).

I have a pc and thought about hitting it up with some wolfgang swirl remover. But I've also thought about buying one of the headlamp cleaner/reconditioners that are out there. I'd hate to make it worse, any ideas before I jump in with both feet?

the headlight type products would be a good place to go with this...
have seen some good info on those recently and will see if i can find what i am thinking of

btw, i would remove the windscreen for this process

(your windscreen is a very similar material to our headlights)


take it slow and test a corner of your screen first... as long as it works continue-

order the 3 step kit (8 oz. size)

step 3 with an orange pad

step 2 with a white pad

step 1 with a quality MF towel.


I have used this on the plastic rear window of an s2k before with good results.
