On all the bikes I have had with windshields I always used whatever wax that I used on the bike OR Pledge and either a flannel cloth or a micro fiber.
Always worked great and that's one less specialty item that I have to buy.

I rinse, then use S100 to clean the windshield. Then gently wipe again using chamois and rinse again.

I blow dry the entire bike with my leaf blower. Finally, I give it a light coat of wax using the S100 Detail Wax. It works great!

Never use paper towels - they are too rough!

If there are a lot of bugs i take a regular hand towel and soak it in warm water and drape it onn the shield and leave it there for a while...10 minutes or so....Then a microfiber cloth and invisible glass or stoner glass cleaner....Heard a lot of good stuff about plexus also...NEVER use paper towels....

I have been using peroxide for a few years it will boil the bug guts loose and then plexis or s100 wax and polish.

I went with Plexus like everyone here said to do and it does wonders for the windshield. I use a microfiber cloth with it.
