Alrighty, right after I purchased the new Jeep the yahoos washed it, effectively swirling my brand-spanking new plastic windows. I know it`s inevitable, but it still sucks for it being so new. I already ordered the Zaino plastic cleaner in hopes of it helping some, but I have no other ideas beyond that. Any other ideas you guys have for helping them out?
I`m sure the windows are likely not-fixable, but I figure I might as well give it a try.

The Zaino plastic cleaner was hard as heck to remove. It smeared like crazy. Did I not let it sit long enough?

I used this on a Z3 that was so clouded you couldn`t see out of it. Well, it looks brand new now and I used those three products.

Well I tried the Zaino plastic polish and let it dry for about 30 minutes. I removed it and then put on Plexus. It did nothing for the swirls.

Meg`s PlastX should do the trick. If it doesn`t, maybe try SSR1? The Zaino plastic polish is made more for chemically removing contaminants, rather than cutting swirls. Think of it as AIO for plastic, whereas PlastX is more of a SMR, with diminishing abrasives. You might be able to get PlastX locally, its a consumer line product. I got mine at a local Advance Autoparts.
Good luck.

Thou shalt not let the dealer wash your car. :rolleyes: I had to throw a fit with mine and get it in writing that they wouldn`t do so before I picked up my new car. I feel your pain. :(
Try Novus plastic cleaner/polish. I`ve heard good things about it. I`ve used Meguiars but only on things like the plastic gauge covers and stereo head unit`s plastic facing.
Good luck.

Alrighty, I`ve abandoned the thought of fixing my windows for awhile, but with winter coming I figure I better get on top of this. I`m going to start seeking out these recommended products at my local stores before ordering online, and trying that. I"ll keep you all posted!

AIO works well on Jeep Wrangler plastic windows.

Just curious, would Zaino Fusion help?

I have some NOVUS... this stuff is a miracle. Its a 3 step heavy polish, light polish, and a cleaner/protect. It really does wonders with swirls and fogging. Its a pain to find but its great..
BTW I found it locally at "The Container Store" near the check out.
I would say its worth it. Also used it on my ipod++++++ great :2thumbs:
