I had my windows polished out by Dave Morris of Plexiglas Specialities.
Amoung other things he custom fabricates plexiglas for aircraft, including
several old warbirds for Planes of Fame in Chino. He recommended getting a
pack of commercial terrycloth towels (Costco, etc.) and washing them in 4x
contration of fabric softener, and storing them in a sealed plastic
container. He said to hose off the window with plain water and your hand to
get the bugs/major dirt off. Then clean/polish it with plexi cleaner (he
prefers Novus #1) and aterry cloth towel. After one use put the towel in
another sealed container. After all the towels are used once then when
wash/soften them and use them again.

He said most of the microfibre cloths you get have too much static that
cause them to hold dirt on the surface.

He thinks the packs of microfibre towels you can get hold too much static,
that attracts dirt to get ground into the windows.

I think we have a handle on the cleaners to use on the
canopy.  But, which towel is best/safest to use on the
canopy and the paint?  I always thought that a soft
cotton towel to be the best.
