Cleaning a Fisher Dial Glass
#2

I'm not surprised nobody want to touch this one, a couple of pictures might help here. Some of thesedial printings are water soluble and will be instantly gone if water is applied to clean 'em. Dunno about "lifting."

Alternatively, you could try to find out if anyone has scanned a good one, and perhaps a new decal or replacement could be made. Another option would to be to dumb down the pilot light(s) so you can still see the dial pointer, but the effect might be less noticeable.

(Moderator may suggest moving posting to another section of the Phorum to gain more eyes, as this could apply to any radio gear)
