Dull windshield

[larue]

Any suggestions on how to bring these dull windshields to life. Thanks in advance

If it's an OE polycarbinate shield, you have to rub off the coating.  

Lot's of posts on here about polishing them, and I'll bet a bunch of Utubes on it too.

Unless you enjoy the challenge, buying a new one is so much easier, and not that expensive.

On this subject, I recently brought home a jug of stuff from the auto parts to polish out my faded car headlight covers.  Well, I rubbed and polished and really put some sweat equity into one side, and 40 minutes later, that side was worse than the one I didn't do.

I didn't use my 10" random orbital buffer because I didn't want to mess up my paint (or mess with masking).

I strongly considered using my belt sander with 40 grit on it, just to get even.

You will love one of these.    https://www.clearviewshields.com/motorcycle-windshield/honda/valkyrie-std-tourer-shields/

I've used 3M cleaner and polish (2 separate bottles) with a mini detail buffer.  On a 94 wing with original shield it has helped, not new by any means.

I use  polisher and a good grade of plastic polish/compound and time and repetition.
It does work and improves the look and view.
