    Default Spots on my electronics




    All of my electrons in my boat have white spots on the black around the screens. The one in the console has them but the console itself doesn't. So I don't think that it was something splashed on them. I have tried to wash them off but have not had any luck trying to get them off. Anyone have any ideas on what they are and how I can get?

    I was in the optics business for years and we used to rub our fingers on the base of our nose and then rub the glass with the grease that comes from the face area. That would usually take the spots off then just clean with a good optics cleaner and soft cloth.

    Kindly looks like white paint over spray. Have you useing bug spray or anything like sprays around this sonar. It will cause all kinds of damage to electronics and screens in your boat.

    No I have not sprayed anything around them that I know of. I have the same spots on all 3 of them too. One up front and one in the console and one that is on a ram mount beside the console. If it was over spray of paint it would be on something else besides just them and there is none anywhere else .

    On mine, I'm pretty sure it was from the bug spray I was using.

    It definitely looks like something sprayed. It about has to be from bug spray then. I very rarely use it and if I do I go on the back deck to put it on but my wife will use the crap out of it. So I can blame her for the spots then. On second thoughts I will just keep my mouth shut and go on. Thanks for all the input.

    if it were me and the spots aren't on the screen I wouldn't worry about it.

    Bug sprays and sunscreen sprays are terrible on screens and plastic parts ...

    Isopropyl rubbing alcohol and a clean pillowcase to clean it.
