Default Windshield cleaner or polish to use
I have a 91 Heritage with the original OEM windshield. The windshield is still in good shape but has minor scratches from years on the road. Sometimes riding into the sun the reflections from the scratches makes it hard to see thru. What is a good cleaner or polish I can use on this windshield. Will regular car wax work?

Sounds weird but I use Lemon Pledge. Works great! Cleans and polishes.

Plastx is good for removing small scratches and it cleans plastic headlights also. A new windshield plastic is only around a $100 if it needs replacing.
