I just use plexus on mine, both sides and do not have a fogging problem
Excellent point, but when the dewpoint is really high, the inside of the screen fogs. Does anyone make something for that?mreuter said:Hi, this cleaning with alcohol or furniture polish is for the original windscreen only. I don't know if you can use that on the other screens on the market also. I would be careful. Best you use just clear warm water. This smoke on the screen is anyway gone if the temperatures come up a little.

Once can always check with the maker of the product.Cochinosucio said:I did a search, and found LOTS of suggestions, however, maybe there is more current info or input out there...
V-Stream windscreen, 2001 K1200LT.
What is the best way to clean the INSIDE of the windscreen for anti-fog, and the OUTSIDE for rain repellent.
I don't use Rain-X, and the decal on the screen says "NO ALCOHOL". I was told denatured alcohol was good, but I am hesitant after that decal.....

FWIW, when traveling I have never had a hotel fail to let me use an old towel for soaking the bugs off. I guess they appreciate that I asked for an old towel rather than messing up one of the better towels from my guest room!deputy5211 said:Plexus is awesome, use it!
BUT... I like to pre-clean my windscreen before using Plexus... basically to get rid of the bugs and other on the screen without abrasion...
HERE's HOW... I use an old, clean bath towel and soak it with the hottest water I can get. Then lay it flat against the outside of the screen for a few minutes. Everything softens up and wipes right off. Then use the Plexus to finish the job and polish the screen. I ONLY use clean microfiber towels when cleaning with Plexus, and I wash them separately from all other items, usually running through a second double-rinse cycle wash with NO soap to make sure all soapy residue is removed. Then a gentle dry, fold, and store in a plastic bag to keep junk off of them. This process works great for the screen and the MF towels.
+1 on asking houskeeping for old ratty towels!deputy5211 said:FWIW, when traveling I have never had a hotel fail to let me use an old towel for soaking the bugs off. I guess they appreciate that I asked for an old towel rather than messing up one of the better towels from my guest room!
