Title: Silver Polish for Discolored Dials
Post by: W2VMC on March 05, 2016, 12:50:19 AM
I've found that silver polish does an excellent job removing hazing and smoke residue from plastic dials. Wright's silver cream seems to do a particularly good job at this task.  It is very mildly abrasive, and so it is less likely to remove dial lettering than other commonly used cleaners such as Brasso.

Toothpaste can also work...
