Just wondering what's the best way to go about cleaning the windshield without damaging it or leaving scratches
I have a sticker that I'm trying to remove
Any suggestions? Thanks

There is a product called goo-off that works well. Also a hot air blower works using low heat in combination with a plastic scrapper. If any scratches occur they usually can be removed with polishing compound.

My new 2014 Montauk 170 had a scratch on the plexiglass windscreen when I took delivery. I ordered a fine scratch remover compound called Novus Plastic Polish 2 from Aircraftspruce.com
They provide parts and materials for aircraft owners and restorers, many of which have plexiglass canopies.

It did a great job of taking out the scratches. Works on the hull too.

Plastic scraper and goo-off for the adhesive removal and As skier mentioned the Novus, that would be great stuff but probably more expensive than the 3M headlight (car) polish for plastic headlight covers.
Remember the rule of hobbies
Car = expensive
Boats = more expensive
Planes = extra expensive
