Forget the glass rear window...
Just used BluMagic Plastic and Plexiglass celaner on my rear window. Bought it at PepBoys. I swear, the window looks as clear as glass. I really can't believe the diference between before and after. It took all of 3 or 4 minutes to clean. I would urge anyone thinking of shelling out for a new glass window to try BluMagic first on the plastic window first.

Did you have any scratching prior to using it? If so, did it remove any? I have used Plexus, the 3M and Meguiars Lines of Polish/Cleaners for Plastic Windows and they all do a fine job of removing the haze, but not too effective at removing scratches.

i use blue magic too and its works well as a cleaner but here's what's wrong...
1. won't do crap for existing scratches
2. won't prevent future scratches
3. won't prevent future deterioration of plastic
4. Cleaning the interior is a PAIN
"clear as glass" is misleading. it is not. i agree that it cleans it well but i would never want to drive looking through our rear window material.
have to seriously think about getting the glass window...

I tried Blue Magic at first; however, unlike Meguiar's, Blue magic is not clear and can stain the top if you're not careful. That's what's good about both Meguiar's and Plexus: Clear, clean and easy to use.

Now I have two spot stains on the outside because I wasn't careful. It's Plexus from now on!
