Old Guages - cracking/hazing
what are my options when those original gauges have finally hazed up and spyder web cracked from all the heat and sun abuse, ive got a couple showing their age after 15yrs in the boat. can you just get the lenses replaced on them or does anyone make some "magic" in a bottle that brings them back to life kinda like a headlight that hazes up? or are they just done and need to be pulled out and replaced?
thanks in advance

Are they labled Gaffrig Precision Instruments(which is now Livorsi) or labled Gaffrig Performance???
If Gaffrig Precision Instruments, then they are Livorsi and can be sent in to be fixed. Not sure about Gaffrig Performance.

Gauges can be refaced, and calibrated when there, which should be done. You get the gauges calibrated when you send them for new faces. Call Gaffrig

will22 ...I had the same issue drove me crazy, what I did believe it or not was I melted the len's out (there plastic) with a soldering iron, the whole circle then had plastic cut to size at a place here called Falcon Plastics then had small rings (1/8") cut by a sign company to put over the new lens to hide the melted plastic that I couldn't get at, silicone them on... looks great and all under $40.00 and I did 7 guages
