Hey guys I am new to the forums and was wondering if anyone could help answer some quick questions. I just recently picked up an 05 G35x and I am having trouble getting certain spots off the windows, clock, speedometer, and metal trim.I have tried everything to try and get them off. I don't think it's moisture on the speedometer or clock because you can feel it on the plastic. If anyone knows how to get these spots off please tell me

Here's the car:

Here's the acid rain spots on the trim and windows:


Here are spots on my speedometer:


And finally the ones on my clock:


Thanks in Advance!

 

Plastic polish for the cluster and clock and clay bar for the windows/trim.

 

considering it's plastic, I wonder if you could take out the dash and clock and use a regular wet sand headlight restoration kit like the mothers set

 

I tried plastic polish(PlastiX) but It didn't come off. Is there anything else?

 

You can try a more abrasive pad or a more abrasive polish. I use a two step Meguiars polish.

 

On the window is it smooth or rough when you run your hands through?

 

It's pretty smoth

 

I would do a clay on it.

 

how did this happen? there's no way acid rain got in the car

 

I had these spots on my window as well. Check out this thread. It helped me a lot.

Welcome to Driver and nice ride.
Your windows look just like mine did;


I used the Glass Science Glass Scrub that Detailed Image recommended in the above thread and it worked wonders on the glass. While the scrub did most the work there was such a large area I ended up using the buffer on the glass (at low speed) and used elbow grease in the corners where the buffer wouldn't fit. The m205 polish I got from them cleaned up the plastic/chrome trim pieces to like new as well. They said to not use a buffer on the trim pieces since the clear is so thin so I used a standard yellow applicator. If you use a buffer on the glass be careful around the trim and painted parts.

DetailedImage.com customer service was top notch also. They have a ton of tips/tricks on their site regarding car detailing and Greg on here (username; Detailed Image) was quick to answer all the questions I had about my "acid rain" spots. May want to ask him/them about the interior clear plastic pieces. Their shipping is really quick as well and prices are nice so don't hesitate to buy from a trusted site sponser

 

The spots on the speedometer and clock are from something else

 

I am going to try this. Hopefully it works for me like it worked for you. Thank You!
