Faded Clock Restore
« on: April 29, 2020, 10:39:01 PM »
Late 80's and early 90's Guzzi used a Veglia analog dash clock.  Commonly the lens deteriorates by exposure and it becomes difficult to read the time.  I figured out process and materials and fabricated some tooling to restore the lens to original clarity.  New material is scratch and UV resistant.

Patrick, very intricate work indeed; well done!  I have that same kind of clock on my T5 (model year 1985) - but it is not yet weathered...  Nice to know you can do it in future.
