Default Re: Polishing Acrylic Top (Southern Comfort)

I have found that Meguiar's Mirror Glaze Clear Plastic cleaner and Meguiar's Mirror Glaze Clear Plastic polish does an outstanding job. It is a product for cleaning aircraft plexiglass and helmet visors. You can find it in most motorcycle sales and accessories places. I have also seen it in Walmart. Each bottle costs about $7. It is an extremely good polish as I have used it for over 30 years, in cleaning plastic windows, etc on convertibles and on my helmet visor.. The bottles are blue gray in color and are about 6" hi, 4" wide and 1" thick. It lasts a long time. If you have a lot of dirt and grime, I recommend the cleaner followed by the polish. If the top is clean, then just use the polish to clear it up. The Navy and Airforce crews use this brand on their aircraft cockpit windows.
