Polishing a windshield on a Harley Davidson Heritage?

I have a customer that needs a very foggy/blotchy windshield polished. What should I use?

Thanks.

Plastic X on a light polishing pad worked well for me. I followed up with Plexus to remove any residue and it came out haze free.

Thank you. So PlastiX via PC/LC white? Where do I get Plexus? I have never heard of it.

I hope this guy didn't try to polish his customers windscreen with a PC and plexus!

I just found this in a search and wanted to clarify for anyone who came along and saw it. Plexus is great but not with a PC.
