Dashboard Gauge and boost/oil Gauge glass/plastic dirty

[Costcocombo]

Hi guys, i recently bought a 2016 EB Premium + Performance. The plastic or glass lens on my dash and boost/oil gauges are so dirty. I can't tell if it's from the inside or how to clean it properly. Is this something i should bring to the dealer? I provided some photos here.

Try some screen cleaner and a microfiber to start, If that doesn't take it off, It may not come off without making a bigger mess of things. You could also try some IPA on a microfiber. IPA is the harshest thing I'd attempt to use on it.

What Dr. Norts said. Be gentle as the plastic can scratch easily.

My middle three gauges have some cruft on the inside. Is there a way to get the sight glass off without removing the dash?

I haven't tried this but have you guys heard of this method using olive oil?

Heard this works too!

Yea....don't do that .Pretty sure that's a joke.

It looks clear because the oil fills the scratches. Eventually that oil will run off (and make a mess) not to mention all the crap it will attract sticking to it making it worse.

Plastx is aggressive for this. Always start with the least aggressive method first.

If you want to polish you need to remove the clear plastic otherwise you will not be able to get in close to the bezel.
