Hood window cleaning?

Whats the best way to clean the haze off a convertible hood acrylic window?

Just changed the hood on an MX5 I aquired off here and the rear window is a bit blue and hazzy.

Meguiars do a plastic cleaner and polish specifically for hood windows called 'Plastx'.
Did our Moke hood with it some time ago and the windows came up really clear and sparkling!

Is there a "free" product that I can try (something from the Kitchen/Bathroom cupboards)?

Thats what I was thinking of. I'm sure I remember someone telling me about XXXX being good... but I can't remember what it was, or who told me. Done a search on the web and come up with nothing.

it worked for me with a cheap bottle of thinners from ASDA.

Hmmm, that rings a bell as what I'd been told. Nervous about trying it though. I'll experiment on the old (broken) hood first I think.

ps. The Autosol plastic polish didn't clear it... Just left a very shiny but still blue haze
