ORIGINAL: planman

I have used Pledge in the past with good results. On trips, I use the Pledge wipes. I keep a pack of them in my saddlebag all the time. However, I've had the best results with Plexus. It's made for motorcycle windshields and won't leave any residue at all.
Ever notice, Pledge and Plexus come in the same type can, smell the same and share the same first three lettlers.Hmm

I use the Novus products sold at my H-D dealer they have deferant levels 1/2/3
1 is a spray polish/cleaner, 2 is a compound light for swirls and marks, 3 is a heavy compound

In the past I've used it, but that Honds clesner is some of the best stuff around, I have no idea who makes it, but it's good stuff.

For those of you that have used Pledge... Have you ever had problems with it yellowing? I always thought, it yellows in sunlight. Just curious.

I've used this product for many years. I'm sure there are some simular products available.

This stuff has a polish in it that does a really nice job. Especially after a wash, it get all of the water stains off and leaves a nice finish.
