Re: Plastic gauge face scratch removal
I have used 2000 grit sand paper under the faucet and removed some pretty deep scratches from plastic faces, if you end up having to do this you will have to go to a compound then to polish and then plastic polish. Same technique as removing the scratches and oxidation from Head lamps however the gauge plastic is softer.

Re: Plastic gauge face scratch removal
I used a pinball playfield and plastic cleaner, designed to clean plastic parts and the surface area of a pinball machine, it also works well on plastic lenses on the cars.
