you can use the same or a more specific platic polish like Renovo, i have never used a rotary on glass or plastic, i always do those area's by hand.

meguiars plastic polish is good for these but its not that good on the rear screen seems more effective on hard plastics, that is what i use, i prefer renovo for the rear screen
