a little isopropyl alcohol on a cloth should take that "new bright" right off of there.

IDK about removing it, but it almost seems like it would be easier to make a new window from some scrap lexan?

EDIT: ohh and BTW, thats one hell of a nice lookin jeep!!! The fenders are on point!!!

I found using a fine compound and a buffing wheel not only took the logo off but also took any scratches out as well. If you use a chemical to remove the New Bright the window may haze over. Don't ask how I know this. The buffing wheel and some compound will fix this as well.

I removed the lettering from mine with acetone-free nail polish remover from the drug store. It did take quite some time and effort though.

Lettering removed, I ended up going with some #0000 steel wool with Flitz polish. It worked out quite well

I can't see the newest picture.

That is a good looking truck and I'm sure it looks even better without the new bright across the windshield.

This is THE BEST Jeep build I've ever seen. It's much nicer in person (got to check it out when I was in Utah last weekend) performs great too. Nice work AJ!
