From: techman41973 on 10 May 2007 15:50 I recently was detailing my car and noticed after that there are now continuous scratches on the clear plastic in front of the instrument cluster. Not sure how it happened, the terrycloth towel I was using may have had a pebble in it. They don't feel deep. I tried some LCD polish and microfiber cloth which improved things a bit but is taking way too much elbow grease. Is there something else that would work to fix this? Thanks

They sell a wax type block for taking similar scratches out of eyeglasses - stuff works wonders. Shouldn't set you back more than a couple bucks, and one block will last a lifetime if you don't wear eyeglasses. I do, and get a few years per block.

Put a goodly amount on a clean soft old T-shirt and rub away. The more you rub, the clearer it will get. Keep it off painted surfaces. -- Tegger The Unofficial Honda/Acura FAQ www.tegger.com/hondafaq/
