Just don't use alcohol (like isopropyl alcohol)... I tried cleaning a plexiglass reservoir and the alcohol cracked it...

You can use a light household detergent and a soft clothe to clean plexi, but would recommend going to a glass or plastics shop and buying a special chemical designed just for plexi.

Throughly sandblast and follow up with a belt sander using a coarse grit!

OK, on a more serious note any good Acrylic Cleaner should do the job just fine. Keep in mind plexiglass has a soft surface so use a very soft cloth like an old T shirt (Cotton) or better yet snag some cheese cloth. Do not use anything like paper towels as they are abrasive and generally contain foreign matter that can scratch.
