...that he has the same junk on his plastic cover. They look like waterspots, but when you try to clean them off it just shows up again. Anyone know if you can get rid of them?
those things suck ass. I get them and they make my indiglows look like ****. I tried to clean them off with some rubbing alchy... BAD IDEA. IT just makes them worse. I dident find anything to take it off. It sucks

So club soda really works? I think I'll try that.
A friend of mine uses Mother's Mag & Aluminum Polish on his headlights to get the moisture and whatnot out of the inside of the lenses. I've never tried it on the gauge cluster cover, but it could work.
i get that too

i knew it was from the armoral though

i tried all kinds of stuff to get it out but finally gave up



btw club soda gets out everything
If soda gets every thing out, think about your insides! >wink.gif>
IM GUNNA TRY TO GIVE IT A WET SAND AND POLISH.. I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE WITH THAT LOL >biggrin.gif>
post up when you guys try this cuz i hate having to see those spots...
when i took my gauge bezel off to paint it i used window cleaner on the clear plastic piece covering it.....it worked great

took out the spots and no streaks either
