SCRATCHES! I Messed Up My Instrument Cluster With A Micro Fiber Towel - Can I Fix It?

#DodgeChallengerScatPack #Dodge #cardetailing
I was doing some light cleaning on my car and I caused some unwanted scratches on my instrument cluster. I have a product that works pretty well but will it remove them? So mad at myself!

Exactly what I used as well on my vw , scratches gone, like new!

[@Gonin60]

Awesome!

[@miguelnino7256]

Did you use it on the Tiguan? Or which VW do you have?

[@bradyscreenprotech2553]

Our product from Screen ProTech will make any scratched surfaces look brand new!

[@Gonin60]

Thanks

An original product I used for many years is NOVUS plastic scratch remover comes in 3 pack for light scratches, med to heavy scratches & a cleaner I generally only use the bottle for light scratches it does an excellent job every time, my issue was recently cleaned my inst cluster lense with damp paper towels then dried it with paper towels I generally dont much at all clean the lense in fear I would scratch it nonetheless started seeing too much dust collecting on it so I cleaned it up with the damp paper & dry paper towels after that it left an eyesore of light & cloudy scratches all over it, I believe because I waited too long to clean the lense the dust acted as an abrasive scratching it up much but I plan on taking the inst cluster out of my truck to do the job right not having to worry about getting any of the product I use getting on other trim plastics & again I use NOVUS the best on the market they been around for 40+ years I wouldnt use anything else & most amazing results it leaves love the product...

Same thing happened to my cluster on my 2020 Charger 😖

[@Gonin60]

It’s the worst feeling!

[@donnabartle1463]

Mine is extremely cloudy from scratches after cleaning with a Magic Eraser! After reading up on Magic Erasers, they are banned at my house! I can’t wait to try this!

[@Gonin60]

It should help but not a perfect fix

[@kaicreations250]

Thank you for demonstrating this product 🙏just saved my new cars plastic covering for the instrument panel.

[@snowyowl9132]

So, like you said, it's likely just a temporary fix for headlights. Does that mean it can be considered as a permanent fix for an instrument cluster?

[@Gonin60]

This is more of a permanent fix for an instrument cluster

Can i used on my car's HUD unit acrylic cover (mazda)?

@@FelNiode I probably wouldn’t

[@cdale613]

Nice video thanks! Would like to add...When it comes to the Uconnect screen & Inst. cluster I use a microfiber but its a one and done. I will not reuse the cloth in that manner. I have been using a clear liquid made specifically for computer screens. Been working for me without swirls or marks. Keep those video's coming!

[@Gonin60]

cdale613 that’s a good reminder. Be one and done and use a liquid that’s meant for those types of screens.

[@murder_wagon]

Looks like a good light scratch remover. Probably easy to find? Thanks for all the product suggestions. Keep it up

[@Gonin60]

Link is in the description. About $6 is all. It is good for light scratches.

[@TheBlackScatPack]

Got the dash looking new again

[@Gonin60]

TheBlack ScatPack thanks! It did improve it that’s for sure. Thanks for watching!

[@GoldsteinMatney]

Same thing happened with my new to me Camaro SS 😔

[@Gonin60]

No! Dang, I’m sorry to hear that!

[@PoppinACap22]

The one time I took a guitar to a tech at Sam Ash, I came in to pick it up as he was finishing polishing it up with a microfiber cloth. I wasn’t happy to say the least…

[@Gonin60]

Sorry to hear

[@kellytieken1122]

Does this work on the navigation/radio screen?

[@Gonin60]

No I wouldn’t use it for that. I would research. I have only done it on instrument clusters.

[@pheonix2160]

You prob grabbed some dirt with your microfiber and scratched, very doubtfull the microfiber cloth caused the scratch.

[@Gonin60]

I agree

[@dalan_screenprotech]

Screen ProTech is the perfect mod to fix this. It will completely recondition your gauge and navigation to look new again

[@Gonin60]

It won’t fix but can prevent

[@dalan_screenprotech]

@@Gonin60 oh it will definitely fix. I would be happy to send you a kit to test it out

[@Bookieday]

I buffed those deep scratches out with a small buffer.

[@Gonin60]

Nice

[@CallofDutyWarzone89]

The product that I found which works and removes light scractches after testing several scratch remover products to no avail, was QUIXX ACRYLIC SCRATCH REMOVER!! For deeper scratches you will have to sand the scratch until it disappears.

[@Gonin60]

Thanks

[@stevewaggoner3013]

Will this work on my Uconnect screen? I did the exact same thing on my screen cleaning finger prints off with a micro fiber cloth. It is not a deep scratch but its about an inch long.

[@Gonin60]

I have not tried it on the uconnect screen. I would be very cautious and do some research. Such a bummer. Sorry to hear about your scratch.

[@michaelcammareri5837]

Get a glass screen protector on eBay for the screen?

[@mohammadsabir7600]

I will check this out thanks

[@Gonin60]

You bet

[@Hybridog]

• First, brush off any screen you are cleaning with a super soft detailing or makeup brush to remove grit • Second only use super plush, hemless microfiber towels, dedicated only to cleaning screens • No waffle weave towels, no edges/hems, no towels used for any other purpose

[@Gonin60]

Okay

Too expensive in the UK and very hard to obtain! Use Mothers insted!!

[@Gonin60]

Haha

[@worldsails2000]

You scratch the plastic with a micro fiber towel, then proceed to use a micro fiber towel to try to remove it. I would have used a soft polishing cloth or even a soft cotton cloth myself to remove the scratch.

[@Gonin60]

Okay

[@josipmatic1912]

For deeper scratches I think meguiars scratch x would be good.

[@Gonin60]

Yeah for sure

[@R3055-k9v]

How about mag and alu polish

[@mitchyman10]

For deeper scratches u gotta keep doing more and more coat's

[@Gonin60]

For sure

[@ajittamangofficial3830]

Didn't work it.. still I can see swirl while sun hits it😢

[@Gonin60]

Sorry

[@ajittamangofficial3830]

@Gonin60 mate, may I know which micro fiber did you use??

Does this work in mercedes plastic lcd screen? Scratched from microfiber towel :(

[@Gonin60]

No not for lcd screens

Okay

When you say a couple of pases, how many are you talking about? Also will they reappear and will I have to keep reapplying this product? Thanks!
