Headlight Restoration DIY Preparation And Protection That Will Last OK Like the title says be talking about Headlight Restoration DIY Preparation And Protection That Will Last

I’m going to bust all the headlight restoration myths in this video and explain what really works to keep your headlights looking like new for years to come if your headlights have become hazy oxidized and starting to yellow this is the video for you.

Due to all the misinformation out there plus all the feedback I have gotten on the headlight restoration video I did over a year ago. I have come to a method everyone can agree with and if you know of better headlight restoration and protection practices be sure to comment below with what works for you.

I will also be referring to it a lot in this video because the preparation method will

be the same and definitely the best way hands down to fix your UV damaged headlights. Were a lot of the controversy comes in is when it comes to how you should protect your freshly restored

plastic headlight

And there are many different ways, all with there advantages and disadvantages as well as the price and time and skill it will take. I will be answering all

questions in this video.

Depending on the condition of your headlights, weather it just is some light fading

or some very bad oxidation and yellowing

Or maybe the factory clear code is starting to chip from the headlight lens.

This will determine how you should go about restoring your headlight.

If the factory protectant layer is still intact I would just recommend a light polish with a 3000 grit sandpaper and a light compound I like to use from 3m
