Tried a search on this with no luck. Anyone know how to remedy a few scratches that my Nav screen happen to obtain recently. I have googled this and many options come up but none mentioned for Lexus. Thanks.

You have to be careful using any type of substance for buffing/waxing on the display because of the coating that's on the screen.

Yeah saw some posts on other forums where they buffed the coating completely off and they said it worked great but not sure about that.

I would first try Meguiars PlastX. If that doesn't work try this:

This is the definitive way to get your screen looking brand new:

First, if scratched, worn or marked up from chemicals, there is only one way to fix, that is to remove the rest of the AR coating.

1. spray Novus plastic spray cleaner #1 on cotton or microfiber cloth. Give the screen a quick cleaning to remove dust/debris. Dry off with soft cloth.
2. squeeze a tiny amount of Novus fine scratch remover #2 on cotton cloth and work into entire screen in circular motion (good to do small areas at a time)
3. Buff dry with soft cloth
4. Repeat 2 and 3 until all coating off and you have a even, brand new looking screen.
5. Do #1 again to clean off to a great showroom shine.
6. Done - PS no need for AR coating...your windows and sunroof have it and the interior cabin glare is minimal. If you want protective barrier, you can opt for a NuShield product. Don't need it in my opinion...

Here is Novus' website:

You could also try the Plexus spray but that might not be abrasive enough

Thanks guys. Yeah road frog that's the post I saw on the benz forum.

And judging by the feedback there, it seems to work! Personally I'd start with the Meguiars, as I've had great experience with it on previous vehicles.

Hammer,

How did those scratches get there?

Ironically guy that installed my Prestigious Society Nav Override.

You obviously have your reasons not to, but if it were me, I'd be making THEM fix it.

Already working on that. They aren't admitting it.

Yeah, no doubt. Good luck!
