Cleaning clear bra laminate...what do YOU use?

**tadhgbrosnan** · 05-28-2008 08:18 AM

It annoys me when I wax the car and everything looks great except the spotted, smudged clear bra. How do you guys clean it? I googled and one suggestion was "Plexus". It's a plastic cleaner/polish that is supposed to be safe for use on clear bra. Anyone ever use it?

I was wondering this also. I ended up getting my car detailed and forgot to ask what the guy used

my clearbra installer told me to use wax. i have applied Adam's Polish Butter Wax and Lusso Paste Wax on it in the past 3 years.

^^^I actually applied some Mother's Cleaner wax to a small section yesterday and it did nothing. Are your products doing the job?

Just called the detailer guy ... he said he cleaned it as best he could (it appeared as though there was a film on it) then buffed and waxed it.

- wash
- clay bar with a gentle bar
- wax

it is clean and smudge free.

Most say wax is fine but not to use a motorized buffer or anything that will generate heat.

I polish mine with Menzerna 106 with a white pad and medium speed, using either a PC or Flex Tool. Then I top with a wax by machine as well.

I think the key is not to be super aggressive with it, but other than that, it's been fine. This is the 2nd car I've had with Clear Bra.
