The air compressor is a great idea, my compressor is so small I use the leaf Blower after washing. it keeps the spots to a minimum all over the bike. I agree this is a great wind shield, with the vent adjusted its the best.

I use Plexus Plastic cleaner on my screen (and on some plasti-chrome parts too)... and I read somewhere that you should always try to use your rag in an up & down motion instead of side to side while cleaning plastic, as that will reduce the chance of you seeing those tiny horizontal scratches when the light hits it.

I have the same vent (it's from a Goldwing) in my Wind Vest shield.

Here is the link on the Clearview website on how to keep your shield clean. I use the Novus 1.

Save your original pump bottle because you can order 1 gallon refills on Amazon pretty darn cheap. I have been using this for a couple of years since I bought my Clearview Shield.

Works well on other surfaces as well but keep in mind it is a cleaner and will eventually remove wax from painted surfaces.

I am not a big fan of my Goldwing style vent. I wish I would have bought the one with the cat eyes.

Easier to clean & bugs don't get stuck under the plastic.

I do like the shield.
