I just used the same stuff, and it worked great.

I applied it with a Mothers Power Ball - the small one with the extension.

It took about 30 min to do the inside and outside of the window!


I friend of mine has suggested (now that the window is clear again) to but some soft black cloth it the tray in the back to prevent the scratches, perhaps buying a black bathroom mat and cutting it to fit the tray.

Hope this helps someone, somewhere at some time

man i was doing that by hand too for about two layers and mine looks no where near as good as yours. Mine is pretty cloudy too. I'm just going to wait until i go back to houston and have a porter cable i can use. Sore arms isn't worth it...

A job well done! I know how much that sucks. I wish there was a better way to attack the inside of the window. Keep up the clear look with Plexus - heck it might even make it look even better.

I've used the Meguiar's plastic polishes before, but wasn't very happy with PlastX myself. I prefer the #17, #10 combo and finish with Plexus.

I have a Muz Mat in my window well... Bought it when the whole top - including window - was replaced by Honda and it's kept scratches to a bare minimum. Definitely a worthwhile investment.

Yeah, I've polished my headlights with the PC, a 4" yellow pad and the Meguiar's polishes.

(before on top, after on bottom)

Wow! Thanks for the compliments! I went back a few weeks ago and hit the window again. It looks even better!
