Metal-roofed convertibles are all the rage, but there are still plenty of traditional soft-top cars on the road – and many suffer from cloudy, scratched rear screens.

Valeting specialist Race Glaze promises to clear them up with its latest product. It’s called ScreenSheen, and it reconditions screens which have fallen foul of scratches, damage from UV light and loss of transparency. The kit is made up of three bottles – a scratch remover, polish and protective optical glaze, and they need to be applied in that order.

The scratch remover and polish are both thick, sauce-like products, and require a vigorous rub to be effective.

We found it was also worth clearing the screen with a damp cloth after each stage, although having used both, we didn’t see any improvement in our 1991 Mazda MX-5 test car’s screen.

Not until we had applied and wiped away the optical glaze – which comes in the form of a light spray – did things become more clear. Scratches and grime had been lifted. A second dose of each stage, plus some heavy elbow grease, and it was looking even better. So if you’re patient, ScreenSheen is effective.
