Cool Headlight totally cleaned!

Alright everyone in the Tampabay area, I have the very best headlight cleaner ( no not my girlfriend ) in the planet. After having a demo on my lights ( which look like crap for a long time ) they are looking brand new NOW! Now I have the kit and can help you with your lights. Small fee will apply. Guarentee to work or your money back. This stuff might be better than my natrual hair regrowth formula. NOT!! They both work or your money back. Just ask Shinka!

so you used a 1000 grit sandpaper and clearcoated the lens afterwards to fill the scratches in...wow! big deal.

anyone who'd taken autobody 101 could've told you that... its just a matter of spraying the clear on with steady hands thats the hard part.

did that with my old car's clear corner that i dropped on the floor and....ooops, stepped on it.

will gladly pay for some "real" service... but not this something anyone can DIY.
on this car forum, hopefully i receive as much as i can provide......but helping out is part of what this community does for eac other.

its not my intention to offend if that is not the technique at hand ur speaking of. if it isn't...please enlighten me. i'd love to hear ur trick. my car came with slight hazy headlights from the dealership... sure they were using some solvent to remove glue prior to delivery... not too noticeable.

but how does ur method differ? i'd love to know.

TrochoidMagic, +1 for sharing
PRLegend, +1 for trying to make money off of people for something that is very difficult. Good luck with the kit!

our headlight issues are mostly from "Grime" that appears on the inside of the lens.

It's a polycarbonate lens. Very easy to clean or fix depending on the issues, and many products available.

Yeah, I saw thw Mothers guys use mag wheel polish and their buff ball to take off the haze. Followed that with their plastic polish.

Looked good when done.

I tried it on my wifes Odysessy and the lenses look much better. Need to go over it a couple more time for a 'show car' look.

No more haze.

If you are going to do that, mask over the paint around the headlights first. The buff ball and mag wheel polish might do a job on your paint.

yeah, go to the dealer, and they'll give you a new set of headlights.

I'm on my 3rd set. Out of the 48k warranty now though, so I'm not getting anymore replacements.

Regular paint polishing compound works fine on headlights... Meguiars Scratch-X (designed for hand polishing on paint) and Meguiars Plastic-x (designed for plastic lenses) are available at most auto parts store.

THe headlights too oxidized for polish only? No prob, 2000 grit wet sand and polish after that.

So easy, my car illiterate gf can do it.
