I don't think you would want ammonia, as that's the one chemical we are not
supposed to use on the plastic screens . I know a tech that
will remove the lens and use an automotive polish. The type advertised that is
used on plexiglass cockpit canopies.Some kind of polimer.
Like an oxidised car finish, you have to "break" the scum barrier.
For general lens and screen cleaning we use "Glass Plus", as it has no ammonia
and is very safe.
You know, mold and fungus can actually eat into a surface and etch it. be sure
you are removing a coating and it's not etched surface
there.
