Hi all.
Last spring when I started prepping my scooter for riding, I noted some flaking of the outer layer of my windscreen for my scooter (2009 Xciting 250). This spring it was even worse. It appears that the scratch resistance is flaking off. It looks horrible, but has not compromised the integrity of the screen at all. Any suggestions how to clean the rest of this layer off of the windshield? Thanks and remember, it don't matter what you ride as as long as you ride.

Just out of curiosity, what have you been using to clean your windshield? You should be using a plastic polisher/cleaner like Plexus.

Only water and elbow grease. The manual recommended to not use any kind of cleaner so I have avoided doing so, but my wife washed the scooter once as a surprise for me, and I suspect that she used some sort of soap-based car wash. Even so, the de-laminating didn't start until several months later.
What I'm looking for is a way to remove the rest of what I suspect is a scratch-resistant coating...any ideas?
Thanks.

Marine supply or airport repair facility. Liquid/cream that can be wiped/polished on and then buffed off to take the haze/scratches etc off perspex/acrylic/lexan etc
Elbow grease!
