We just got our camper canvas out that we haven't used yet. The "windows" really need some cleaning. Any ideas on a cleaner to use for this that won't streak too badly?

Novus Plastic Polish is what I use. I also hear good things about Plexus.

I was told by a "professional" canvas repair man that pledge is the best product to clean the clear
part of your canvas with. Pledge keeps it from cracking, I've been using it for 4 years now and am
happy with the results, plus it smells nice.

How do you like the v288? Possibly my next boat.

For many years, I used Meguiars two step (cleaner and polish) each year. It did a good job but is was a laborious process.

This year I could findn't find it so I went with Plexus. What a difference. Just spray it on and wipe it off with a soft towel. It removed all the light scratches in one easy step. One can is $23 but I only used about half a can for all my eisenglass inside and out. Highly recommended.

Novus Plastic Polish is what we have used for 5 years now. Seems to work very well.
