The acrylic (or plexiglass?) windshield in my Club Car had swirls and fine scratches on it...probably from using paper towels and windex to clean it. Searched the internet and found a product called Novus 2 fine scratch remover was highly recommended.

The Harley Davidson store in Lake Sumter carries an 8 oz container of Novus 2 for $5.95 which was as good as any online price. I bought it and it took all the swirls and scratches out...the windshield is clear as glass. Also used it on the headlights and tail lights of my car as well as the clear plastic part of the sunbrella enclosure of my golf cart.

This stuff really works.

They also have a #1 that is a cleaner/polisher and #3 that is for heavy scratches. Haven't tried those.

Just an FYI for those golf cart owners having trouble seeing out the windshield.

Paper towels = a no-no on the golf cart windshield!

Once you're happy that nearly all of the scratches are out using the Novus #2, switch to the #1 for regular cleaning.

Here's a bit of info on each of the 3 products:

Novus Plastic Cleaners

Most motorcycle dealers (and other places as well) sell a product called Plexus - comes in a couple of sizes of spray cans. It's also good stuff for cleaning your golf cart windshield:

Thanks for info Nancy. I have been using a product from Ace Hardware to clean my glass and it polishes, repels dust and inhibits fogging. I will get some of the Novus for any scratches I have.

I was just told that the reason for compromising a windshield is using a cleaner with ammonia in it. I havea suggestion. I used creamy peanut butter to clean and remove scratches from DVDs. I bet it would work on the winshield also. Just try an out of the way corner.

Thanks for the tip - I picked some up yesterday - Window on my cart is now scratch free and super clear.

Sales person @ carts & clubs says to use vinegar & water & an old T shirt or a micro fiber rag. Will not scratch.

Does it work on the headlight covers that are foggy?

Me TOO.

PS
Mine had glass lens for headlight so it didn't work for them.

I think my daughters car is plastic and it is so foggy. She has a 2001 mustang. Or does anyone have suggestions on what will clear this up.

Toothpaste works

You can take it to a dealer and they will buff and redcoats for less than $100.00. Makes visibility so much better and of course especially night driving so much safer. We had this done as a birthday present on our daughter's 2001 Honda CRV. Could not believe e difference. Good luck.

3M makes a kit that really works good. This kit makes the lens look new again. O'Reilly Auto parts in Ocala carries it. Maybe advance might carry it also.

Walmart can clear the headlights in the auto service center. Also there is some product, don't know more.

I have had many years of good results just from using my regular auto polish on plastic windshields. Wax on, Wax off.
