DIY - Headlight Restoration with 3M Kit

This is a DIY on how to clean your headlights the proper way .

In these I did them on two that we not so bad but still I have seen them on worst headlights then mine.

On another note I do not know the specific year but now cars come with a clear coat from the factory so this can take a long time to clean off the clear coat .

You will notice when you do this if your car had clear coat or not because the sand paper will not immediately haze that area . 

Make sure you use a battery drill and make sure you have extra batteries .

Clean headlight from any grease or dirt first .

Tape the area around the headlight or take them out if it is easier . You will notice the amount of sandpaper they issue you . This part can take 15 minutes or it can take a hour each side depending on how bad your headlights are .

You can use three on each side but make sure you haze it until you see nothing but a hazed lens .

You can read the directions in the kit . 

Second faze again use all three on each side this is not a race on how fast it is about perfection .

Third section get a spray bottle fill it up with water . There is only one of this pad . Make sure you keep this pad drench with water and keep on till the haze goes away . Yes it will look a little foggy but you will see the haze disappear .

Final faze is the buffing with the chemical supplied . Again it isn't how fast you do it , It is about perfection .

Here ia another example of a different vehicle I was able to do two with one kit only because they were not bad but if you do have bad ones I recommend you only do it to one set .

My advice is to take a day that you can spend on it and do not rush some times it can take one hour for one headlight .

This is the best kit ever .
