What to use to clean gauge cluster plastic?

[imported_RedlineIRL]

Is there anything out there that works best to clean the plastic face of gauge clusters? I know i is one of the more delicate things to try and clean becuase it will scratch easily, that`s the reason I have never touched it before. It is starting to get a slight haze on it, I guess from the interior dressings, beause I tried an area and it wipes off easily.



I really have no idea what to use

I`ve been wanting to know this for a while. I currently use glass cleaner and microfiber towels. I can`t think of any better towel to use than microfiber, but I would like to know what the best cleaner would be as well.

I would imagine a plastic cleaner would clean up any haze and slight scratches. I haven`t really encountered any really bad gauge clusters before so all I use is QD to keep it clean.

I use Sparkle Glass Cleaner. It was developed to clean the windows on the B-29 bombers in WWII. Just make sure whatever you use doesn`t contain amonia - that will cause crazing. I`m not sure about alcohol based products, maybe someone with more experience will chime in.



I know there are plenty of products that are safe to use, I just haven`t tried that many. Plexus comes to mind - people really rave about it.

i use megs plastic detailer or fk425 and the eurow shag towel (awesome towel on delicate scratch sensitive surfaces and i use these instead of other microfiber towels for this purpose)...

I have used ONR sprayed onto the plastic to clean it. No scratches.

I think the key is a quality MF towel that won`t scratch with a glass cleaner being secondary. Anything that cleans and helps repel dust is fine, but a bad or dirty towel will scratch. I`m sure most people not on this forum just use paper towels and that plastic gets scratched all over.

For clusters I use Plexus and MF. Works great for me.

I was thinking about ONR mixed to QD strength, but I didn`t want to get any streaking with it

You won`t, just use a good clean MF. FWIW I use FK425.

Plexus and my best MF.

Have you guys tried 303 Protectant on the cluster?

Yes and it left a greasy streaky mess.



Plexus is a plastic cleaner and light polish works better than anything I have tried on clear plastic.
