Headlight Restoration
« on: August 12, 2015, 07:44:58 pm »
Hi guys, I've noticed my headlights are starting to cloud over and before they get any worse I want to restore them back to how they should be.

Has anyone done this? Any how to's out there??

Cheers.

Done the 3M kit a few years back and sealed it with G1 or G3 I can't remember which. Gradually the cloudiness came back.
A few months ago, I smeared autosol over the headlights, left for a few minutes and then rubbed it off. The results were great, didn't use sealant this time, just wax. Wish I did it before going to the extremes of the 3M kit tbh.
