My 86 year old dad accidentally sprayed bug spray last year with the nozzle facing the wrong way. Went right on my gps screen. I didn't see until later what appeared to be permanent damage and heard horror stories that you are basically screwed. I called Hbird, left a few posts online...no one offered any hope.

Then, someone sent me an article by Rick Clunn who said to get a good quality paper towel (Brawny, Bounty) and cut it to the exact size of the gps screen. Soak the paper towel in 50-50 water/vinegar and then place directly on the screen. Let it sit for an hour, take off, clean carefully with a lens cloth. I was not optimistic but ecstatic when I removed the cloth and it was 100% back to normal.

Dodged a bullet there ~
