My gauge lense is very faded can barley see through it. Looks like the last guy that owned it used some fine grain sandpaper on it. Is there anyway I can fix it. Was thinking of the headlight cleaner. Thank You

here is what I did to mine

I noticed my clear lens that covers the gauges was real scratched and foggy

so i wet sanded it real good on both sides with 2000 grit

then I used my high speed buffer with a wool pad and a polishing compund

this also helped more than the lens
