Only 145 miles and allready lots of fine scratches.Only used plain water with a microfiber cloth to clean it. I`ll be watching to see which aftermarket shields create best air flow and most scratch proof.

Plexus 1 is really good when used with microfiber. Only use microfiber and has to be clean.

There are not a lot of after market screens yet..Give it some time and v-stream and clear view and others that are more scratch resistant will show up.

If you are using plain water and towel to remove bugs, try using Hydrogen peroxide full strength first and then flush with water. Then use a micro fiber towel to wipe shield down.

All plastics will scratch, some easier than others..

Ah see that's your first mistake - don't clean it, no scratches! That will be my approach anyway :D

Personally I have found microfiber collects microgrit and causes microscratches. ??? YMMV
