Re: {Chrysler 300} Cleaning 57-59 dash cluster lens

[Keith Boonstra <kboonstra.zeegroup@xxxxxxxxx>]

On my 57 gauge lenses, they had abrasive cleaning scratches that were so deep that I had to actually start with 1000 paper and work through compounds and scratch removers to get to a final glow. They did come out beautiful as new.

Dave –

 

When faced with cleaning a set of very crusty 57 Chrysler gauges, after removing the lenses I used warm water and dish washing liquid. Use a paper towel for some mild agitation. Don’t scrub too hard. It will all come off.

Anyone have a clue how to remove the dried up, petrified and crusty gasket remains on these lenses without scratching or destroying the finish on the lens proper?

Thanks!
