Instrument lens haze!!!

8950 · 11-12-2000, 04:59 PM

Hi all! I've noticed all the tiny scratches lately in my instrument lens cover and would like to finally clear up this problem! I know this is a very common problem but I can't remember what polish I should use to alleviate this situation. Have you guys polished the lens while in the car or have you removed it? Also, I believe there was an article in MM&FF. Anybody remember what issue so I can look it up? Thanks for any help!!

I think it is plexi-glass polish.

I also tried once using baking soda. It required massive scrubbing, but, it seemed to clear up somewhat!

Haven't tried the polish yet.

I got some freakin windex on mine and it left little spots on it, if you find out what the cleaner is called, let me know!

I don't see why regular rubbing compound wouldn't work.
