This might be a silly reminder, but the screen doesn't still have a protective plastic layer on does it?

If you don’t mind me asking, what the heck happened to it? Do you just throw it in your pit bag and then toss the bag into the back of a truck bed bouncing around? Isn’t this unit almost $600?

You can open the transmitter and read the labels on the backside of the screen and google arround. It is not that Sanwa has made an own screen....

You got a deal with Recvrs and case, the tx was a bonus. It was treated like a RTR TX. Repost Photo with the M17 turned on

novus makes a liquid polish from heavy scratch to fine scratch. you can polish that out with novus. its made for acrylic fish tanks. do it by hand. a power tool will creat too much heat to do it properly unless you are experienced.

looks pretty bad. I would try with some headlight lens restorer kit. Tape off the radio. Just work on the screen gently.
