In need of help with fixing dash

[catliektheif]

oh no im sorry, i meant pledge would have been a better thing to use from the start... it probably wont remove that stain...

if i had the splotch problem in the second picture, i'd try the Rit Dye process to see if that would work.. but thats up to you!

it looks like on the lense that its condensation on the inside of it. so if you can remove the dash piece and get behind the lense,maybe you just have to wipe the inside of the lense with mildew remover.



good luck! sorry for the confusion

It isn't condensation, though it looks like it. It'd have to be a dousing on a dashboard that had largely been taken apart to get enough water to form condensation under the gauge cluster, to the point where you'd also see electrical problems from getting such a quantity of liquid on the cluster and the OP hasn't mentioned that.

I can almost guarantee it was Armor All or something similar with shine additives that aren't suppose to come in contact with clear plastic. That's why they tell you not to get Armor All on your windows. If you scratch at it with your nail, you should be able to feel the difference between the cloudy part of the cluster, and the unaffected clear part near the top. A plastic polish and some elbow grease should get it off just fine; however, the longer you wait, the harder it will be to get it off.
