Just got myself a prime specimen, but apart from the decks needing work I need to de-fog the tuner window. Someone obviously used windex on it at some point and messed it up. What have you guys used to make em crystal clear again?

There is another one Lasonic TRC-920 posted for polishing the VZ2000 cover. I cannot locate that. That was excellent!

I used 400 grit, wet/dry paper, then 600, 1000 and finally 1500.
Then buffed with a wheel and polishing compound.
It turned out pretty well but not 100% "flat" looking.
It would be best to use a cork or hard foam block if possible to keep it flat.
Used all the paper wet too. Rinse well between grits.

Oh, also,if buffing with a wheel, VERY light passes and keep it moving.
You will burn it very easily if too much heat is built up on one small area.
Just a normal pressure as you run the window over the wheel.
It might be helpful to 2 side tape the window to a wood block also. That way you have more to hold onto.

400 to 1500 is a bit aggressive I would think? Unless your numbering system is different.. I start 1800 and end up on 3000, buff then it comes up like glassCoast Steve said:

I used this on my Hitachi. It polished yellowish plexy glass like new.
