This has happened to me with many different cars over the years. Since they no longer use glass to cover gauges, I've learned to NOT wipe any dash lenes -- the only thing I do is use a lambswool duster to remove any dust from the lens (which is all there should be there anyway). If you use a scratch remover you have to be careful, because you are probably going to get the "polish" in the area around the lens and the dashboard itself.
