I just used a glossy black (for plastic) works rather well when I painted it. It took a few coats to do it though. You want to take your time on painting the windshield. Don't paint heavy more lightly when you do. Also paint the inside (surface near your gauges) to give it that shine/reflective look when you stand in front of your bike. There is a guy on here that painted his windshield blue and it came out very good. Matched his bike and all. Hope this helped and any more questions just go ahead and ask. Sorry it took me so long to reply. Haven't been on here for a while
