Just detailed my Truck last weekend and can't get the bugshield as clean as I want it. It is a Lund brand. It seems to be hazed and there are bug stains on it. I have tried Scratch_X and Megs #80 and the appearance is not much better. Any suggestions?

Try a plastic polish. I was messing around the other day after I got some Duragloss plastic polish (I don't know what number it is sorry) and just hand rubbed some in on the last 3 iches of her plastic bug guard. I could really see a difference. I want to try it with a spot buff pad and the PC. Sorry no pics and the truck is in the shop.

I've had very good results with Plast-X and a Mother's PowerBall.

Thanks Meghan!
Here I go again. The "wish List" keeps getting bigger. Looks like another order coming on very soon.I just placed an order yesterday. This is becomming habit forming.

Thanks for the input from all. Responses are much appreciated.

Clay bar it (i'm sure you already know that) then hit it with some Meg's Plastx. They sell it all auto stores for like 8 bucks....

Yes Sparkie it is #681. I would clay it first and the use a plastic polish with some kind of a machine to work it in. Then if you have it use Plexus.
