: How do I remove fingerprint scratches...

...from the LED radio display? I made the mistake of just quickly brushing off some dust with my thumb and it's left fine little scratches on it. I don't want to make it worse with just any kind of cleaner or have it left cloudy from some weird chemical reaction. Anyone have an idea for me? Thanks!

Is the car still in warranty? silly as it sounds you can have stuff replaced for something like that. I work for a Vw dealer all the time. Like when the buttons start to peel. You can take it to the dealer and have it replaced. It seriously happens all the time.

Another option would be use a cloth dipped with a bit of Brasso.

Works on my acrylic watch crystals and cleans up nicely, but would test on something else first (just to be sure).

Thanks, I was just wondering if anyone had removed any fine little scratches and knew what had worked. It's nothing so bad I'd ask for a replacement for it. I guess I could try it on a clock radio in the house first, right? same kind of plastic I'm guessing...

Mequire's Plast-X if it's very light scratches, and lots of elbow grease.

Thanks heaps, KenM10759!! I found some Plast-X and it worked perfectly for removing the scratches. I appreciate the feedback here from everyone. It's really something what you can find out on this forum. Ask the littlest thing and poof~~someone has experience with it. Very impressed with our group!

I am very pleased with the thought and don’t feel like adding anything in it. It’s a perfect answer.
