Fine grit sand paper, Plastic X, Rotary Buffer, and time. Works great.
Also they make many kits that can be bought over the counter at local parts stores. My HHR is due soon, maybe do a how-to.... |

Nice!
Meg's makes a specific protectant for UV rays. I havent bought it but hear good things, in general I always throw some wax on there just for a lil extra. Like with any correction how much pressure, speed, abrasiveness of the pad/chemical, dictate what it can cut. The alternating with sand paper. up to down, then side to side, makes everything consistant as far as scratches and then plastic x and a wool pad gets that near new surface. |
Wish they would go back to glass. This never used to be an issue.

The days of "Sealed Beam" headlights were simpler, but we'll never see their return. |

It'll never happen, glass is heavier than plastic, and it's a bear to mold into complex shapes with consistent optical characteristics.

I have used several different brand restoration kits and have found Sylvannia's kit to be the best. Unlike most others it comes with a sealant/UV protector as the last step. Headlamps looked brand new when done.
