Ive taking it off and I can see that it actually has marked, burnt or melted the top layer of plastic.

I've never had much luck in removing this stuff, which seems to appear if you use a spray on glass cleaner.
With tootpaste, make sure its the white stuff, gel type doesn't have the abrasives in it to work.

Maybe some cut n polish will take it off but it might leave scoring, worth a try in a hidden area though.

I think it's the face of his dash? The dash is tinted, to the slightest chemical cleaner (even glass cleaner) errodes it..

I had a can of brasso in my hand last night, reading it

ithought it might do more harm,it mentioned all metals

and not plastic at all, coz the face is

perspexs(spell)
this is really frustrating me, coz I got nice new red

dials, have put them on and all, but I got to clean my

face before I put it back together, to check them

out.
heading out the door to get some brasso
