What do you clean your cab with

[divemaster127]

I have a slikstik quad 4 & i have yet to find a cleaner that does not leave streaks on the control panel, what do you guys use I have tried windex, & all purpose cleaner

Glass Plus

Seriously some of the best stuff ever... it doesn't streak. I use it to clean all types of monitors (CPU/arcade) and any type of glass. MY CPO is a thin lexan and it works great on that also. It's not a very harsh cleaner either, so It has been safe to use on a lot of things. Just be sure to test a small spot on different plastics or paint before wiping down the whole surface. Especially if you are trying it on the side of a cab.

For old textured control panel overlays, I use 409 and a toothbrush.  Magic Erasers and water work great as well. 

I've never had a problem with Windex streaking when cleaning smooth surfaces though.  Maybe try a different brand of paper towel?

From what I've heard, you shouldn't use Windex on plexi.

Formula 409 all the way!! Novus on the buttons if you're real anal (like me).

What's good for the white side panels on centipede?

[Q*Bert_OP]

damp rag and glass cleaner water(1 portion glass cleaner 4 portions distilled water)

I use it on all my cabs with no bare wood exposed and it works very well, but do not get your cabinet soaking wet, only a rag with very little solution.

For the textured control panels I clean them with a cotton ball and some strong chemicals Not really that strong, a product called "Sandpaper in a can" and the main ingredient is high flash naptha. Works wonders on the textured stuff and doesn't do any damage (because it evaporates in a few seconds, which is why I use a cotton ball to minimize the area I am working on)

For the sides I usually use a concentrated lemon cleaner, without dilluting it. Haven't ever had it pull paint or sideart colors off. Pulls a lot of dirt off though.

Would you say Glass Plus is the way to go on smoked plexi/lexan?  Other things I've tried leave scratches...

On plexi, use newspaper...works great on mirrors too...
Just take a piece of newspaper, fold it up and wipe away all the fingerprints and stuff...

Try http://www.happcontrols.com/cleaning_maintenance/29117510.htm it works very well on plexiglass.

Newspaper?!? 

Isn't newsprint a bit abrasive? Not to mention the ink...

The plastics shop I got my lexan cut at recommended stuff called "Brillianize" for plexi & lexan.  No chemicals that will damage the finish on the plastic.  It's never hurt the lexan windows on my Jeep, anyway.

I see Tap Plastics sells it online.
