Hi

Can anyone recommend products/methods for cleaning the plastic rear window of a convertible?

It’s a 2001 Porsche Boxster and the hood is in good shape, but the window is slightly opaque.

I don’t mind spending a bit for quality, but ease of use is also a factor.

Thanks!

I'm sure there are lots of good options out there, but I had a BMW M Roadster with the same issue and BMW made their own cream in a tube to clean the plastic window. Worked a treat. From a BMW dealer obvs. Porsche probably make one too, but it'll be three times as expensive and will probably break (I own a 997 frown)

Thanks - I looked at BMW’s current offer and it has products for the hood and for glass, but nothing for plastic windows, presumably as they no longer fit them.

Anyone know of any other good options?

Used Renovo plastic polish to good effect on my Caterham's plastic windows.

Renovo is good. Autoglym super resin polish does a reasonable job too
