newer vehicles rearview mirrors// cleaning

i've found on newer GM vehicles outside rearview mirrors are not glass but a plastic of some type// have had them sort of get blotchy/hazy and dont cleanup with regular window cleaner // what i've used with great results that has restored a great clear crisp mirror finish is "plastiX" by meguiars// i use the same stuff on my motorcycle windshield and both head and taillight assemblies

good stuff for plastic cleanup and not expensive and no power tools needed
