Fisher 500b Faceplate Restoration

[solodolo47]

This is my first time posting on here so forgive me if I am posting in a wrong thread.

So I have a Fisher 500b I recently acquired. I've cleaned the faceplate and polished it as well and cannot remove this corrosion or whatever it is on my faceplate. It doesn't feel like scratches. I'm thinking maybe it's the anodizing wearing off? I'm not sure. I was wondering if anyone has experience with this type of issue on these units. It is a 20000's serial number as well if that makes a difference.

I'm just thinking that there has got to be someone Out There that specializes in 500-B/C faceplate restoration/lettering

Yeah it's definitely not bad. Thankfully from certain angles it's not as noticeable. I was hoping I could get her cleaned up as much as possible though.
