Has anybody out there had any success with cleaning the yellowed numbers on the clock of a tick tock tach? I understand it can be done with some sort of acid wash but I don't know the details. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Your best off buying a new face decal set from Performance Car Graphics in Florida and refreshing all your gauges




Here's the B Body decal kit installed in my 70 Charger, going on 11 years, no issues

I took a chance and used some household cleaner on it with a soft cloth and it turned out like new. The clock face seems to clean up better than the gauges. Thanks for the input!
