Default How do I remove white fog from canopy?

this white fog?

If anyone is wondering, this is the Phoebus C that was on W & W for
the last 3/4 of a year. I am very pleased with the glider and was in
even better condition than I thought it would be in. I plan on making
this Phoebus like new over the next few years and replacing the
canopy. But in the meantime I would like to remove the white fog for a
clearer view while soaring.

Meguiar's "PlastX" would be worth a try. It's widely sold (Walmart,
etc.) for clearing plastic headlight lens covers and it is
(relatively) quick, inexpensive. I've not tried this on a canopy, but
it works great on automotive plastic. If this works, it would be
about 1/10 the effort of MicroMesh.
