    Polishing a GK windshield

    I have an '82 GS1100GK tourer that I am renovating. I need to clean up the windshield. Anyone know if the shield is coated plastic or not? Also, if not coated, what would be a good polish to use on it to clean it up & get minor scratches out of it?

        I used a headlight kit polish kit on my 1150. Then I did a couple of headlights on my friends car...

          I would rather trust my bike to a "QUACK" that KNOWS how to fix it rather than a book worm that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix it.

            After tipping my bike over in the garage ,and putting god awful scratches in my aftermarket windscreen, the manufacturer, (gustaffson) recommended plastic repair products by Novus. It worked wonders on what i thought was irrepairable.

            When consulting the magic 8 ball for advice, one must first ask it "will your answers be accurate?"

              Maguires PlastiX

              or

              3M Plaastic Cleaner

              Most auto parts store should have one or other.
              Both meant for general plastic parts.

              You will want to do by hand. Use buffer and can digg too deep too fast.
