One of my tractors (CaseIH 5240) has a fancy digital dash, anyway, screen works fine but over the years the screen has become scratched and dull and is now hard the read. Anyone know of anyway to remove the scratches and clean it up so it's readable again. When I wash it down with a little water the screen looks great until the water dries.

CDs get scratches and there is a spray that cleans them up. I would use a windex like product first to remove all residue, then apply the product. Headlight lense polish might also work. Jim

I'll second the headlight restorer.
Years ago, before cars had plastic headlights, I saw an old sun yellowed speedometer lens on a motorcycle shined up to almost perfect using toothpaste for rubbing compound.

Headlight restore would be the best way to polish off the yellow and polish out most of the scratches.
Rain-X will temporarily fill in some of the pits and scratches on older pickup windshields. I apply it before winter driving season. The carrier is rubbing alcohol. It may be worth a short term trial on scratched gauges.

Chrome/aluminum polish will do it. I polished the plastic headlights on an old Pete I still have with it. Just by hand some, helped.
