plastic over gauges on dash is foggy - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

I guess that I used a little too much armor all one too many times on the glass(plastic) over my gauges and its all foggy looking. I can't really seem to get it off. The more that I try and wipe it off, the more it seems to scratch the plastic. If I can't clean it any idea on how much for me to replace it? It's ugly!!! Ahhhh!

3m makes a wax for plastic its either a wax or some sorta cleaner, we have to use it now at the dealer for maxima headlights where customers complain about fogging supposedly nissna is saying it works and its on the outside. but we'll see

also i have this same problem on my 99sentra se i just never botherded to see how to remove it once we get that wax i might se if that works if not ill just order a new lens. try the 3m stuff out first see how it turns out

There is something. It's a plastic/ plexiglass rubbing compound that if used properly and a few times a yr. (at least on the exterior of the car) will keep all your headlights from being foggy or getting that way. As far as the interior it should be the same. Just go and look for it and you'll find it.

armoral is a grease/oil type product
you need you use a grease/oil cutting product - lighter fluid should work, then address the scratches
