So do you know what this special clear for headlights is? IDK why they wouldn't just use a regular clear...

What was the cost? Do you happen to know what they used? I've read Meguires, Mothers, and Blue Coral. Just curious.

From what I understand, you can do it yourself for about 25 bucks......


Here is the thread....

I am very interested to try this...... and from the thread responses, I think this could throw 3m headlight lens stuff right out the window
