How many of you wax your windshield??

[Burnerboy]

Every time it rains into the garage I go (put on my headphones, with Led Jepplin blast'nnnn away in ears) and give my TRIKE a 100% complete coat of wax........... I ALSO INCLUDE wax'nnn the windshield as well.
I find that if I'm caught ride'nnn in a rain storm, that the water hitting my shield, just rolls off, and does not block my view at all... BEFORE the wax, the water would, blind me from look'nnn though the shield clearly...............
So my question is: DO you wax your windshield???

I have a WindBender windshield and look over it. If it rains, most of the rain gets carried over my helmet so it doesn't bother me. If I wanted to disburse water from a windshield I would consider Rain X or similar although not sure those chemicals are good for a polycarbonate windshield (or whatever plastic they are made of).

I just use pledge, keep a can in the bike for when the bugs commit suicide

I may not have waxed mine but I did try to use Lemon Pledge fairly regularly. It's "almost" like waxing it. If there were a lot of bugs, I'd hit it with a 50/50 mix of water and hydrogen peroxide I always keep handy in a spray bottle. That stuff just makes the bugs dissolve and then can easily wipe them away. Then Lemon Pledge it afterwards.

Sometimes use Pledge sometimes use wax. Bugs come off easy during wash.

I use Rain-X 620036 Plastic Water Repellent on my windshield.

RejeX on all the plastic including windscreen. Stuff, including bugs don't stick and water just rolls off. And, it's shinier and lasts longer than wax.

Another vote for the plastic specific RainX

Hondashine spray detailer on my Harley-Davidson have always made it go a little faster. It’s what my Wing buddies always told me..

I use a cleaner {Plexus} made specifically for plastic windshields which also coats the shield. Works great and last a long time. I keep a can on the trike and in the garage.

Wax the windshield??? I've gotten so lazy I don't even wax the rest of the bike any more!

I always wax mine and leave it on till I ride again both sides of it

Ronnie, I always use the Honda spray wax for everything, including the windshield

I bought PlastX to get some of the scratches and oxidation off my car headlights. It worked great and then I looked over at my large trike windshield and used it on that. The windshield looks great and the rain, most bugs and bird bombs either slide off or they're easy to wipe off. I use Collinite 845 wax twice year or more on the trike and the windshield then use Lucas spray wax in-between.

I use Yamaha Spray Detailer on the windshield and the rest of the Spyder. It Makes the rain bead up and bugs easier to get off. Stubborn bugs get the hydrogen peroxide treatment then a coat of Spray Detailer. for all the years I rode a Yamaha Venture/Royal Star I always kept them shined up with the Yamaha Spray Detailer. Cheap and it works.

Wow! Didn't know we can use Pledge on glass. Thanks for sharing.

Using an F4 windshield, it cleans great and doesn't need anything additional. Love it
