Correct Dtro, I had a screen with many scratches and I took a small amount of toothpaste and a older sock and rubbed and rubbed until they were all gone.

I would rub a bit and then reload with more toothpaste and I did this while watching TV in the evening. After a few evenings, I had it looking like new. I then put a screen protector on it so I would not scratch it again.

It looks as good as new.

Ya, meguiars makes a good plastic cleaner as well as 3m. Its a 2 step process, cleaner first then a polish. Just about any auto parts store has it or can order it.

I just put some of those screen protectors on my h2o and it seems to work good. Nice because when its messed up you can just peel it off and put another one on.

Just keep rubbing, then polish off and repeat. You will see as you polish all the scratches go away.

In regards to the perch, I caught one and another FMer named Vook caught the other. They came from Lake Gogebic in the UP of Michigan.

If your looking for a real treat, go there for a weekend and enjoy some huge perch. Its amazing.

I used Flitz to polish the scratches off mine. I didn't spend a lot of time on it, but it definately made it better. I would try the toothpaste first, then look to other things of that doesn't work. Like others have said, put a screen protector on there when you're done to keep from getting other scratches.

Good to see all us guys with scratched screens have a support group.

"Hi, my name's Brian and my h20 screen has been scratched for 2 years now"

Where did you guys get the screen protectors from?

LOL! I have H2o-eosis-arrhea. Brian, I have some that I ipcked up for other electronics I have, like a phone or whatever. It never occured to me use it on my h2o though! DOH!

      Problems with Yetti

      got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....   Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.    Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.   Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out

      It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.

      we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
