After you use the cleaner, then use some wax. They make plexi wax but you can use regular car wax too.

Re: Keeping side windows looking good.What to use?

FWIW, I have had excellent luck with Meguiar's professional grade products for clear plastics:

meguiars.com: E-Store /Professional (Mirror Glaze Brand)>Clear Plastic Care

The first one is a cleaner, which then prepares the plastic for the second one, the polish. The third one is a combined cleaner/polish in a spray bottle, intended to be used as a quick detailer.

Really excellent products, and inexpensive too!
