... plastic window or rear windscreen, the products and procedure could be the same.
I've use the meguiars plastic cleaner and plastic polish to restore and Plexus to maintain.

I'm talking about the rear windscreen which inserts between the two roll bars behind the seats. Where could you purchase Plexus? Do they sell it it Canada? Thanks!

Order it from Amazon if you can't find a better choice.

Keep in mind that Plexus only keeps the plastic nice and shiny once clear. If you have cloudiness and scratches, you need to first use a plastic cleaner that is an abrasive, to buff out the scratches, and then you can use the Plexus to keep it in good shape. plexus is not an abrasive...it is a polish.

Most motorcycle shops sell it, as do marine suppliers and the occasional auto supply store. I'd look for it in that order. I can't image why they would not be available in Canada, eh?!!
