Clean yellow plastic on Fluke multimeters... |
|
|
Hi,
From time to time my Fluke equipment is used in a dirty environment.
Unfortunately it's difficult to clean the yellow plastic.
What do you guys do to clean your yellow fluke equipment?

Thanks, but unfortunately I'm in Europe and they don't seem to sell it in my
country. Any more 'standard' solution?

Look for other citrus based cleaners.

Try a simple hand cleaner such as orange goop or anything with pumice.
A simple pen/pencil eraser will remove scuffs and minor scratches
without any fluids.
Clean the plastic screen with the pencil eraser to remove scratches
and finish with rouge (Honda's face shield buffing compound makes a
good finisher. Clean deep scratches first with a sharp razor blade to
bring the surrounding material down to the same level as the scratch.
Take a standard plastic bag and cut out a cover for the screen. Wet
it on one side with dishwater soap and apply it to the screen pressing
all air out to make a good protective cover. |

I don't have my Fluke anymore :(
But maybe try the"solvents" that got it on there in the first place.
Diesel, varsol, or maybe even xylene or isopropanol (do a test patch
first)?
