One thing that can be an additional problem is that once yellowed, the plastic gets more brittle and can crack much more easily than before--so you must fold the top down with kid gloves to prevent cracking.

Sorry.

jbaril02, Zhenya and Ike,

I am posting a link to a UK manufacturer of a product that may help. This claims to be able to remove scuffs and discolouration in the rear screen and apart from the official club endorsements I know that professional classic Mercedes Benz retailers in the UK use it.


Hindsight Plastic Polish, Cleaner & Restorer: Homepage

It is not cheap but presumably much less expensive than a new rear screen
