Default Glass Top Cleaning

I want to definitively know what is and is not safe to use to clean the glass top.

I know Rain-x is out because of the alcohol. Is ammonia (Windex etc.) safe? What about Armor All glass cleaner.

I am already going to have to refinish the top and I do not want to make the outside worse or begin a problem with the inside. Thanks

You're top is plastic. I use soap and water and towel dry.

Yeah, the top is plastic, you can use any mild car detergent & I don`t think Windex is going to hurt it. If you have fine swirls in it, you can use plastic cleaner/polish that you can get at most motorcycle shops, or even Pep Boys. The shops sell it to clean/polish the Lexan windshields.
