im trying to restore my crx sir plastic lenses because they are yellow and i read that one guy used nail polish with acetone and my dumbass tried it and they got worst now they are all haze on the inside is there anyway to fix that?

 

Acetone might work on glass lenses as it would eat the faded clear coat off the glass.
Acetone eats plastic!

On plastic I have used plastic polish - I have a 3 step liquid polish. Each step is a finer grit.
In extreme condition I have used sand paper then the polish staring at 1200 and working my way to through to the polish with a few finer sandpapers first.
You will more than likely need to sand out the hazed material and then polish.

 

The problem is that the haze is on the inside of te lense and you know it has this lines and squares inside so i kind of imposible to sand. Them

 

You can always take your lights apart and clean the inside.


This is why I got rid of my plastic lights and bought glass ef8 (EE8 are what I bought got my front end). Glass = no oxidation!

 

where can i buy those glass headlights they are rare for a sir ?

 

if you ever think about selling the plastic headlights....send me a pm
thanks

 

I got rid of the crappy plastic right hand drive angels lens too....glass FTW


They can be had in Europe

 

u can literally see the difference between my old plastic headlights and my new UKDM EE8 CRX headlights. these came off a LHD EE8 CRX, these lights shine just like usdm lights. not like the JDM RHD lights that blind oncoming traffic.

 

UKDM are RHD so you are shining the exact way the plastic ones did.

 

A lot of people confuse ukdm and edm.....left hand drive versions can be had from many places in Europe...i have a set myself.

 

My sir head lights were that bad too untill i worked my magic 1500/2000/3000/corse to fine polish to this

 

my headlights are from and EDM LHD EE8, my bad. i bought them on the UK version of ebay. same general area where my LHD EE8 power window switches came from. as well as my EDM EE8 rear fog light. sorry about the mix up earlier.

 

sorry but still not as clean as glass headlights. and within time the oxidation will still return. im pretty sure Deetz will agree with me:

GLASS HEADLIGHTS ARE THE WAY TO GO!
