rear window
 
What is the best thing to use to clean the rear plastic window on a regular basis? I have the stuff to clean it if it starts to cloud but am not sure of what to use just cleaning up the car. With my luck i would end up spraying it with window cleaner and the whole thing would melt out of the top.

Go to www.carcareonline.com and ask owner Larry Reynolds this question. He is not only one of the country's great authorities on (and sources of) car-car products, he coincidentally happens to be a Boxster expert and is always quick to help.

If you are careful not to get any on the top fabric, Meguires lightest duty liquid cleaner wax works real well. Years ago, that's what they sold for plastic window cleaner. I use a feather duster or wash the car first before touching the plastic with cleaner/wax.

Wash it carefully with just your hand and lots of running water. Usually gets it mighty clean. If the scratches are light, you can use the old yachtsman's trick of hand rubbing the window with white paste toothpaste. The very mild abrasive (designed for teeth, remember) is much softer than most everything available at an auto parts store. HTH

I was passing bye AND SAW THIS POST. IHAVE AN 87 CABRIOLET
SLANT NOSE WITH PLASTIC REAR WINDOW AND THE ABSOLUTE
BEST STUFF I'VE FOUND IS " PLEXUS" FROM AUTOFANATICS.COM
MY LOCAL PCA AND MY DRAG RACING BUDDIES USE IT FOR SOFT BACK WINDOWS AND LEXAN FRONT WINDOWS IT WILL KEEP YOU PORSCHE REAR WINDOW CLEAR AND WON'T LET IT YELLOW. IT WAS
ORIGINALLY DEVELOPED BY THE MILITARY FOR F-4 CANOPYS.

REALLY GREAT STUFF COME IN A 13OZ SPRAY ON CONTAINER FOR LEASS THAN TEN BUCKS.

Hey, thanks for the reply. I think the Plexus is what I was looking for and I will order some. I wanted something that i could clean the window with when i wash it.
