By way of background, motorcyclists often use products such as
as a cleaner, polish, and protectant. It works well on plastics, especially windshields, and leaves a shiny layer of a protective coating making it easier to subsequently remove bugs, etc. It works very well.
But it is expensive. So years ago a number of motorcyclists convinced themselves Plexus and Pledge have similar ingredients (the debate/discussion continues to the present). As Pledge is a lot cheaper they continued to use it as they would Plexus.

I've never used Pledge on any of my cars but in the late 70's when I bought my second boat (a Checkmate), the dealer suggested it for all the fiberglass surfaces. It worked very well and I discovered many fiberglass boat owners used it and still do.

I second the use of Meguiars UFF. Its so easy to use, spray on / wipe off - leaves a slick, shiny surface behind. I found a little goes a long way as it spreads quickly. Given all the high quality automotive products on the market these days I wouldn't use Pledge.
I think the real problem here is you are using it every day but still purchasing in a standard consumer quantity. So just switch to buying in bulk -
