Been there, done that. I squirted just a teeny bit of WATER on one
of mine, thinking that water ought to be about the least harmful
thing you could use, and I could see immediately that the ink for the
lettering started coming off. Luckily no real harm done, though.
Then I consulted with the list (you are MUCH smarter than I am, to
consult the list BEFORE the fact!) and Randall Young suggested I use
Endust
it's like 'Pledge.' Armed with Endust and several Q-tips,
the gauges cleaned up pretty nicely. I tried not to go over the
actual lettering with the Q-tip. Just be VERY careful!
Good luck!
