How to fix small scratches on instrument cluster
Hey as the title suggests, I noticed a few scratches on my 18 LCI instrument cluster and no clue what or how to fix.
FYI I noticed it after it was purchased so they obviously scratched it when they cleaned the interior. Also what do you clean it with? |

I use a camera cleaning lens brush and a little camera cleaning hand air blaster but I've taken it in for a hand wash a couple times and believe just a wipe with one of their towels introduced some minor scratches.

Mine has a few hairline scratches that are only visible in the right light. I assume it happened either in assembly or by the dealer before I took possession because I have never touched it. I use a can of compressed air to blow out the dust on the display as you do not want to touch the LCI display with even a microfiber cloth as it's extremely delicate.

That plastic BMW used on the LCI gauge cluster scratches if you have any more contact with it than breathing on it. Really horrible choice by BMW.. What could they have been thinking??

Yeah, I scratched mine just wiping it down with a microfiber towel. Had I known better would have just blew it off with compressed air and not touched it.
