Over this past summer I noticed some white spots on the black outer casing of my Humminbird 958c locator after one trip. I didnt think to much of it, I just thought it was some water that had dried on the outer casing. The screen was fine yet and wiped of clean as new. I had tried a couple times to wipe the wipe spots off but they never came off, but still never thought much of it.

Now that I have more time and am cleaning up the boat, I am trying to get the white spots off again and they wont come off. I did some research and it appears it may be stained from overspray from BUG SPRAY or SUN TAN LOTION, and probably wont come clean again.

If anyone else has seen this and knows of a way to fix it let me know, and for everyone else who has expensive locators in your boat be careful.

Here is a link to similar issue others have had and some pictures... Mine is not this bad but still bothers me, because none of these are cheap units.
