1. I bought a small tub of plastic window polish at the Griff Growl that brought my back screen up a treat, it changed it from yellowy to almost completely clear. I'd tell you what it was but I cannot find it.
2. Renovo made the hood look almost like new, and I can recommend that as well.
3. My whole family vote Wonder Wheels as the best alloy wheel cleaner

Anybody else got any recommendations?

I have gallons of wonder wheels (Costco) but detailingworld forum is dead against it - says it very harsh.

Supposidly better to seal wheels that keep using harsh cleaning agent.

It sulphuric acid. Not surprising it cleans crap off your wheels. Also not surprising that long term it can kill them.
