Re: Gauge Cluster Restoration
The chrome was worn on my cluster when I restored it so I just polished the rest of it off (boarder and gauge openings) with some paint polish from Meguire's. It looks like high gloss black lacquer. For the thin chrome line around the perimeter of the bezel I went to Hobby Lobby and got a chrome alcohol paint marker. When it dries, it looks just like the original stripe. It doesn't work for wide areas but for a line, stripe or re-doing the letters on the ignition switch, light switch, wiper or choke letters, It's great.
I've been having trouble accessing photos to post lately but I'll post them when I figure it out. Tom
