Its finally time to get the Wedge back on the road smile after its winter hibernation, but the rear plastic windscreen has gone opaquefrown its a bit yellow and cloudy. Any tips for getting it nice and clean, soap and water hasn't done any good.

Get some brasso wadding from supermarket - you know the kind of thing - comes in a tin and its full of wadding impregnated with Brasso.

Does a great job on plastic rear windows. I give mine a go over with brasso once a year.

I got a bottle of special plastic cleaner from fleabay, not very expensive, original used on aircraft screens. Worth a search on ebay.

Hi Stephen
the car's not taxed at the moment, decided to park it up and get some jobs done before the better weather. Just recovered the targa panel and will be removing the rear roof section for replacement soon. Also got some new carpeting from coverdale so the seats will be coming out this weekend. I can post you the plastic cleaner if you want to use it, just let me know.
