Here come the questions: instrument display glass

[MajBach]

My dial displays seem a little scratched and foggy. I think I cause this when I used my glove to wipe away some dust that had settled on them. I did not expect them to scratch so easily. Has anyone else experienced this? Is the plastic replaceable? Has anyone tried the fairly new "Headlight lens restorer" product on their dials (or even windscreen)?

I think Mequiars PlasticX should do the trick to help restore those clear plastic components. Then I suggest you employ Plexus with a clean microfiber cloth (never paper,cotton or synthetics) for your daily cleaning and maintenance, including all plastic parts. Plexus is good stuff!

The lenses over the gauges are part of the assembly and can't be replaced.

For light scratches use Novus #1 & #2. For heavy a scratches use #1-3.

Plexus may work. But never use paper towels with it.

You could also use 3M hand glaze compound. Buffed out several light and gauge assembly's with it.

Or Amazon.com

Or the pilot supply shop at the local airport.

Here locally, even O'Reilys Auto Parts has it, but that may vary regionally.

I've had better luck with Novus than Plexus, but both will work pretty well.

The Novus products can be found at Tap Plastics.

Most Harley dealers have the Novus... the #1 is a cleaner polish, the #2 has an abrasive for removing (smoothing) scratches.

Don't think I'll be buying that much polish.
