Sainsbury's own bathroom limescale remover !! (blue bottle) - don't knock it 'till you've tried it - also, finish it off with a standard glass spray cleaner

Yep Meguiars worked fine for me - only problem is just trying to get at the screen inside.

I think W6DAN recommended a small Thai

StevenM, and others, you'll find that the tube will self locate. Simply park it at the base of the hood (up). The tube will rest against the lip of the rear bodywork and roll down into the hood under gravity as the hood folds away.

The reverse operation is less cool - the tube flies out and usually onto the road behind, which can be interesting

Can the plastic screen be replaced for a glass one without replacing the entire hood?
