It will definetely remove Vintage stuff like Hallicrafters receiver
lettering, also some Johnson's Transmitters.
As for newer stuff some Icoms and Kenwoods. Always test it on the back
first and then some on the front.
Most manufacturers tell you to use mild soap and water. Then just water
to get the soap off.
If you want to know the best I found is a spray on Honda Motorcycle
Wax, leaves no mess and cleans too, I use it on everything, about $5
a can at any Motorcycle dealers, Great Stuff!!.

Very strange... That's two replies about removing lettering... I must have
just been lucky to date, as I have never come across a problem with Windex
removing lettering... Is this more prominent on older equipment, or is
newer equipment equally trouble prone?

Windex is a "safer" chemical, however...

If you need something a little stronger than Windex, but still safe for
plastics, try isopropyl alcohol (ordinary rubbing alcohol). I have
tested it extensively and have never found a plastic it will damage.

It may remove lettering, however, so be careful there.
