If you do this, I'd still recommend getting a clear shield.

Thanks, I have ordered a protector for the radio face so when I tank her in next time for an oil change I will get them to do this..

The secret is to wet the inside thoroughly with the spray (3 parts water to 1 part isopropyl alcohol). Wet it so thoroughly that you can slide it around easily across your radio face. Once it's positioned perfectly, THEN WET THE OUTSIDE! Use the little rubber squeegie only after wetting the outside. That way you avoid scratching the surface like I did. The Ghost Armor lacks instructions.
Note - if you only want to do your radio face plate, looks like the best deal in town is the Radio Face Plate for 11 bucks at the url above.

If you'd like to PM me I'd be happy to get you in touch with customer service to get you taken care of on your warranty..we also have some install videos on our thread in the vendor section as well.

Also the solution we use/provide doesn't contain alcohol it's a mixture similar to tint solution.

Meguiars makes a plastic cleaner polish, got it at NAPA for eight bucks. It does a great job, but the minute your kids touch the screen instant scratches, I wish the used a glass screen. The scratches are annoying.

If anyone know how to remove the cover, I want to clean under it. It's foggy in certain light.

Camaro forever!

Wanted to share what I used this afternoon to remove some scratches and then the subsequent problem I had and what fixed that.

I got some scratches this week on the display from a rolled up piece of paper, yes paper! I have had some minor scuffs in the past that I removed with Plexus but these were very visible. I started with Plexus and the scratches were still there. I then used Adam's Clear Polish and it was doing a good job and the scratches were slowly going away with 10-15 minutes of rubbing. They were almost gone when some dirt either got on my applicator or or my fingernail pushed through the applicator and all of sudden I had some new, deeper scratches.

Well crud, the Clear Polish wasn't really making a dent on those even after another 10-15 minutes. I had read a post on Adam's forums where they recommended either Clear Polish or Revive polish. The bottle mentioned that it was good for Plexiglas so I got the Revive out and while it wasn't immediate, it did remove all the scratches I created. The display looks great now.

I even tried Revive on some stubborn scratches on my clear bra and those are gone now too.

Thanks Adam's. Now off to buy some Ghost Armor.

Adam's Clear Polish FTW. I used it on my friends camaro last week and it took his scratches out completely. He seen the ghost armor that I have installed on mine and will be buying the complete kit this week. I have no worries anymore about scratches now that I have the ghost armor installed.

I did the same - have no issues with it, and it eliminated the few (from the factory, as well as a few of my own trying to clean/remove what i thought was a smudge) scratches that were on it.. though, I would definitely recommend putting it on ASAP, to avoid scratches to begin with. It can be tricky, but as long as you apply plenty of the spray, and do this in very good lighting to see any/all air pockets - it is a great product!
