Don't use "Stat Kleen" on your visor.

Bottle says it protects plastic and is safe for visors. Ruined mine.

Was able to recover it by just using more and more until all the coating came off. Not sure what that coating was for, though.

Not picking on you, but I would extend that to say don't put anything that is marked as corrosive anywhere on your helmet

 

[unL33T]

Yeah. I should not have trusted that one line about visors.

Believe that is your anti fog coating you just stripped off your visor...could be wrong though.

Probably.

I use kids wet wipes on my visor.

This was my go to. Had this around at work and decided to try it. I regret my decision. At least the visor seems to still be usable.

The tip in there about seat belts could be handy for me. Got a slow one in one of my cars.

It's anti-scratch coating and anything with ammonia in it will have that effect on the visor.
Found out the hard way with Windex when I first started riding.

As mentioned before - mild soap and lots of water.

Warm/hot water on a cloth ..let sit for a minute and wipe dirt/bugs off easy.

I made the mistake once of using Invisible Glass on my visor. Made it all crazed, as I went when I found out the replacement price for a new one.

A good read but one of those posts says "use PlastX". Don't use that on your visor if you have anti scratch coatings. That Plastx is a very fine grit rubbing compound if I'm not mistaken. At least that's what it seems like to me when I'm using it. I use it to get swirls and slight scratches out of screens etc. Works really well for that.

Wow, just tried it and it works! Seat belt doesn't go all the way in on its own but it gets most of the way there. Way better than before.

Good to know. Will have to try it on the Outlander. Ironically my newest vehicle is the one with seat belt issues while the 30 year old one is fine.

Just starting pledge on my visor. Thanks for the tip. Water beads off better than when I used Rain X. For the inside, I let a thin film of shampoo dry on the surface of the visor and then wipe it off. Doesn't fog up at all.

Did you just spray it on the entire length of the belt itself?

 

[fastar1]

Yeah I pulled the belt out all the way, sprayed each side very generously and let it wind back in. Did it a few times. I figure the product needs to seep into the mechanism, I can't see how the webbing itself is the problem. Maybe were it rubs against the hook or trim pieces.?

Having done it though, now I wonder about residue leaving marks on my clothes, like if I wear a white shirt to work...?
