Hey guys,

Finally pick up my new s2k on the weekend but there this part which is bugging me I'm not sure if this has been covered or not is there anyway of using some sort of liquid to get the rear plastic window back clear.

Thanks
Perry

Probably not. It's just vinyl and has either thousands of fine scratches or turned cloudy from UV exposure.

its $30 from Honda ;)

Your better off going to any Autobarn store and getting Plexus plastic cleaner , its about $23 a can . Wash the inside and outside of your plastic window , chamois it and let it dry completely. Then spray directly onto it with the plexus , and using a 100% cotton cloth or any non-scratch cloth and really polish hard both inside and out . Should come up clear . Thats assuming your roof/window has been looked after .

The PlastX works well , only problem is if you get abit of it on your roof it leaves a white stain and looks like bird poop . Takes a few weeks for it to fade away .

Get a new roof buddy.

I had an immaculate plastic one, and it was still shithouse to see out of.

Even new plastic windows are crap to look through, no amount of product is going to change that.

Glass is the way to go.
