It would be great if there was a write up to go along with the pics. Next spring I am looking to clean my headlights up.

These were a pair i just did for a customer. It isn't a DIY, just needed to post the pictures up for him so he could see how they came out.

If you look @ my sig. Retrofitting is my game.

Start wetsanding with 1000 grit, then 1500, and finally 2000. Finish off with a buffing of a rubbing compound.

Word... 1,000 grit will take off a lot of the hazing creating by UV rays from the sun.. 1,500 grit will help take down the scratches created by the 1,000 grit sandpaper. Hitting it with 2,000 grit sandpaper will help remove most major, visible scratches.. Using 3,000 grit is totally pointless and a waste of time. Make sure you wet-sand. Use a soft dura-block, wrap the sandpaper around it, and have a spray bottle filled with water available. You wanna keep the headlight and the paper wet at all times...

A buffing compound like Meguiars Diamond Cut 2.0 works great! Be careful: you can burn the plastic, keep the RPM's at about 1,000 with light/medium pressure if you have a nice adjustable speed polisher, and keep the headlight lens relatively 'wet' with compound.

Hahaha, I often make threads to show people things.

i have done prob 10 sets of headlights in past year always started with 1500 and then 3000 grit wet then buffed always turn out great
