Last wash of the bike the screen stained with our hard water area droplets. Whatever I tried to clean off with just left them - until this. Mooching around in the cupboard came across shower clean daily shine. Seems to work a treat.

I’ve missed this... I’ve been looking forward to a TFT on my next GS and now I find out they don’t like hard water??

That shower cleaner could be slightly acidic as it claims to prevent limescale - not sure what the long term effects might be?????
 
Another warning with the TFT screen. I use Muc-Off to clean my bike and the last time I used it, it was a hot day and I didnt rinse the bike off quick enough with the result that the TFT screen has dried Muc-Off droplets on it. I have tried washing these off with soapy water and it made sod all difference. I will try this shower cleaner myself so thanks to the OP
 
What is this “cleaning” you speak of?

I live in a soft water area, the TFT display still stains. I used visor cleaner to clean it.
 
Have ordered a screen protector just to prevent this(not sure it will make a big difference but we'll see)...

The screen is brilliant but for some reason, as soon as it rains or after a good wash, droplets dry in place only to leave mega marks... At some point I thought I actually damaged the water repellent layer by using too aggressive a cleaning product but was later relieved to learn they all do it...

Usually, a micro-fiber cloth can get rid of them stains. Looking forward to test a clear screen protector
 
Has anyone tried AutoGlym Fast Glass? It’s pH neutral, so could be worth a go.
 
Just been reading posts.
Best solution is Motul Helmet and Visor Clean.
Cleans without leaving any streaks visible
 
I’ve moved on from shower shine to soft and gentle make-up remover. Don’t ask! Anyway if you live with the love of your life, the female variety, they probably have such things. :thumby:
