I know they make a lot of neat stuff. I use one of their products to remove old wax and it works great. I'll look for the lens cleaner. My wife's Volvo headlight covers are terrible. The spray stuff for refreshing a wax job is neat too.
Not all stores have all products. The gauges turned out good, just took forever. It was a winter project for my VF11. One of the biggest rats I ever bought. ________________________________ From: stanley/ Randolph <tinkrm...@yahoo.com> To: nighthawk_lovers@googlegroups.com Sent: Sat, February 20, 2010 4:36:03 PM Subject: Re: [Nighthawk Lovers] faded gauge covers Dennis - did you know about Meguiar's lens cleaner, like for headlights? It may have been a lot quicker. I have used my buffer and fine (machine) cut cleaner and the yellow wax and cleared up many a lens on cars I have detailed. I think they are polycarbonate also.

Don't use a Dremel or anything like that, it can't take any heat and will burn. I refinished my gauges starting with 600 wet paper, Dupont #7 white , Semichrome, jewelers rouge. 20+ hours to do two gauges. I'm sure there might be better stuff, but that's what I had. Watch TV and rub. ________________________________ From: Josh Dencklau <joshdenck...@hotmail.com> To: nighthawk lovers <nighthawk_lovers@googlegroups.com> Sent: Sat, February 20, 2010 6:56:11 AM Subject: [Nighthawk Lovers] faded gauge covers The plastic that covers the gauges on my 700s is SEVERELY faded, to the point that it is difficult to see the gauges. I'm wondering if anybody has had any luck clearing this up or if I am wasting my time. I tried a polish that I had laying around but don't seem to be making much progress. Perhaps I should go get a heavier polish or even try wet-sanding? Thanks in advance. ________________________________ Hotmail: Trusted email with powerful SPAM protection.
