Dash Gauges

Is there a way to make the face shinny again. Mine all work and just need to shine as new with out buying new ones or paying for a restoration job.

65 I don`t have out yet. So I did not know if the glass is bad or the black face of gauges is faded. Maybe every thing is just dusty and just needs cleaned.

I did mine on the 60 and the came out great. Started with 400 grit and worked my way up to 2000. Then I buffed them out. Look new.

They probably just need to be cleaned as they are all glass (except the odometer lense). I bought all new lenses for mine but upon dis-assembly, found they only needed to be cleaned.
