I use a BMW paste which they sell for cleaning the plastic windows of their convertables.
It worked very well and cleared all the 'mist' from my screen. Best of all it was only

No Terry - you got the brand new Renovo Plastic Window Cleaner in a bottle. This is the BMW Z3 paste in a tube. My garage is an Alladins cave (read: full of shit)
