Pledge works great on the windshield. I am too lazy to stop at a Honda dealer just to buy a can of spray cleaner. I wouldn't be in a Honda dealer for any other reason.

I noticed the high price of Plexus last year when I bought a can. Gonna check out the Honda product next.

Here's another money saving tip... Honda Brite is the exact same thing as S100 and it's priced a few dollars less.

I like both plexus and honda polish. Gave up on both of them because of the price. Now use a Pledge knockoff from dollar tree. As long as there's no ammonia in the product it's fine for the lexan w/s.

Was a Plexus fan for years but made the Pledge switch a few years ago. 3 pack at Sams and good to go.

That's the stuff I'm using, but with a different label. They sold it at my HD dealer as "Biker Spirits." I use it on the paint, chrome, black wrinkle on the engine and the shield when I use it. Even after riding in the rain and the bike is nasty it works great without washing the bike first, just using the polish.

Is the Harley spray polish the same as the Honda stuff?
