I think that General Motors used something like this to polish their plastic steering wheels pre-1970's From Wikipedia: Vapor polishing is a method of polishing plastics to reduce the surface roughness or improve clarity. Typically, a component is exposed to a chemical vapor causing the surface to flow thereby improving the surface finish. This method of polishing is frequently used to return clear materials to an optical quality finish after machining. Vapor polishing works well in the internal features of components. Feature size changes of the plastic component generally do not occur. Post stress relieving is usually required as vapor polishing sets up surface stresses that can cause crazing[citation needed]. Plastics that respond well to vapor polishing are polycarbonate, acrylic, polysulfone, PEI, and ABS. The technique is also being used to improve the surface of objects created with 3D printing techniques. As the printer deposits layer upon layer of material to build the object, the surface is often not entirely smooth. The smoothness of the surface can be greatly increased by vapor polishing.[1]
All I know is what I read on the wiki and don't recall where I read about the 1960's use case for plastic steering wheel finishing. These days in the USA the vapors would make such techniques unpopular with the Air Quality Management authorities. The Acetone that I think they used is pretty strong solvent and might just remove any paint.@@sttm1283

There’s a quick way to improve lights, not as good as your method, but quick. Use kitchen cleaner like Comet with a wet towel then get a restore liquid, not expensive from auto supply to finish.
I think also that it was quite odd that you would polish the headlight and then applied the vapor acetone. 😆 Polishing is always something done last in the process but is not usually done when applying the vapor application. So that polishing you did was wack.
All you need to do is Wipe on Mothers aluminum polish with a cloth and wipe off almost right away with a terry cloth or micro fiber towel. You'll be surprised. Very fast. 😁

Forget all the crap that all these people tell you to use, YOU DO NOT NEED ANY OF THEM!!! Just use TOOTHPASTE!!! Then with a bit of elbow grease, rub it right in, and then rinse off with water. I use a soft scourer, then with a damp rag and water(depending how bad your headlights are, you can even use a steelo pad), then use a damp cloth and water. It may take a couple of times to get your headlights crystal clear, but it will do it!!! Under $2.00 for a tube of toothpaste, and no need for skilled tradesmen either!!!! Please try it!😀
Will not last. Once the UV coating is gone, the plastic will fog. No matter how much you polish or sand or apply acetone......unless you replace the UV coating, the fogging will return.
I agree. This is why after polishing I follow up with a clear 3M film of automotive quality. The shine lasts a very long time. Great idea with Acetone vapor. Clever.
@billyboybliss. Lost me with the can. 🙄 •Wet sand 600g if really badly oxidized. •wet sand 1000g if still decent. •Compound with buffer or drill adapter. •Apply Carnauba Wax for added durability. •Repeat as needed every year

Do not use wax products on car light covers. Chemicals make plastic cloudy. Check the products before using on car light covers / plastic. I had a cleaning business ...never use wax or furniture polish on any plastic. 😢
This was probably tiring, and took 30 minutes I would rather sand with 2000 grit orbital sander. And use rubbing compound and a orbital buffer. Would take 5 minutes and less effort

but a few drops on a rag and wipe it on would have done it, too, I think. Fixed mine by wiping. You just have to clean them well first else when you wipe you might bury dirt or grit in the surface.
Quickest way to restore any headlight is to replace them!
Before anyone leaves another stupid commnets...lol.. Professional headlight restore palces uses this methodd..😂 and this kit being sold online..
. this guy just showed you how to make the kit cheaper using red bull can ..straw..and candel..
3 drops acetone and a lot of sanding and polishing
In Deutschland ist diese Methode (Dampfpolieren) verboten, da sich die Streuung des Lichtes verändert und zur Blendung des Gegenverkehrs führen kann.
In deutschland ist furzen beim kacken auch verboten
確かにアセトンは、アルコールよりも樹脂を溶かしますからね。私は過去に会社の研究室で、アセトンでビーカーに、こびり付いた樹脂の洗浄を行ったこともありました。因みに素手でアセトンを何度か触っていたら、爪が変形しました。 今は完全に治りましたが・・・
Si, ma scaldarlo ... 🤔
last step is easier with uv protectant clear spray. Krylon makes it. And it keeps it clear longer.
結局磨くんだね そんなん
アセトンじゃなくても磨いた後にクリア吹けば同じ
Only thing I found that actually works good is the cerakote headlight restoration kit
Just buy some goof off, rub it off with cloth like you cleaning glue off a surface you want clean then use buffing compound or car polish to buff it up .. job done
Use brake fluid and job done. But don't get it on the paint work or it will lift.
Really
@@mduduzimanyatsi9311really. I did that to mine and now it's bare metal
There’s a quick way to improve lights, not as good as your method, but quick. Use kitchen cleaner like Comet with a wet towel then get a restore liquid, not expensive from auto supply to finish.
Super!
Quer dizer quê foi a acetona e não a lixa pra tirar o verniz que protege o farol. É cada uma...
A Sylvania restoration kit is cheap and works great.
In the auto trade we cut and polish lenses.1500 first if very bad. I like your hand tools only.
Защитного слоя нет - очень быстро пожелтеют, в китайской жиже синей есть компонент защищающий от ультрафиолета, а в ацетоне - нет
Я пробовал ацетоном на оргстекле - фигня получается, китайский чайник рулит. После химии обязательно в броню закатывать пока пыль не села.
interesting how he can hold the can while heating it up with fire lol
It is only a lighter, the evaporating acetone will be taking much of the heat away: Latent heat of evaporation.
УФ защита?... 🤔 Не, не слышал 😁
Судя по рукам ещё что то пробывал😂
I think also that it was quite odd that you would polish the headlight and then applied the vapor acetone. 😆 Polishing is always something done last in the process but is not usually done when applying the vapor application. So that polishing you did was wack.
Uv safe clear laquer woukd be better ....but this is science at its best
Way to much hassle. Use Mothers aluminum polish for a 5 minute fix 100% easy LOOKS GREAT Los Angeles
All you need to do is Wipe on Mothers aluminum polish with a cloth and wipe off almost right away with a terry cloth or micro fiber towel. You'll be surprised. Very fast. 😁
Судя по кол-ву отзывов от китайцев, ты им конкретно бизнес испортил :)
Pakai pemberih cat kuku bisa jua.
Which is acetone
Максимум полгода и всё снова жёлтое. Самое надёжное закрыть лаком у меня на канале всё описано. Сам лично делаю на своих авто.
give the name of your channel to
Ну и наконец после всех манипуляций на пару тройку тысяч ..три капли ацетона😂
я и говорю лапша для евротупарей, там полирнуть только осталось но про ацетон то надо было довешать)
If you pizz on them, and use a magic erasure they look like new.
Надо сразу клеить бронепленку.
Try using a sander it'll be so much quicker
Нужно отполировать и покрыть специальным лаком. Это по технологии. А то что на видео, вариант на 6 месяцев, дальше они снова поцарапаются и станут мутными
Всё точно но одно но полировать не нужно будет только хуже.
Полировка не нужна и даже вредна)) Лак всё сделает ))
Вот как заматованную поверхность облить водой, пока не высохнет будет гладкая и блестящая, лак даст такой же эфект только долговременный, а риска нужна чтобы держался хорошо ;)
А горелкой не проще?

Αγαπητέ, η εικόνα μιλάει μόνη της. Το acetone είναι το υγρό που καθαρίζουν το βερνίκι από τα νύχια. Υπάρχει στο εμπόριο παραγγελια από φαρμακεία και σαν καθαριστικό χωρίς χρωστική και αρωμα. Ο τύπος χρησιμοποιεί τον ατμό της ακετόνης σαν καθαριστικό ή σαν φίνις βερνίκι.
Де береш ацетон?
It is used to remove nail polish. It's everywhere
Forget all the crap that all these people tell you to use, YOU DO NOT NEED ANY OF THEM!!! Just use TOOTHPASTE!!! Then with a bit of elbow grease, rub it right in, and then rinse off with water. I use a soft scourer, then with a damp rag and water(depending how bad your headlights are, you can even use a steelo pad), then use a damp cloth and water. It may take a couple of times to get your headlights crystal clear, but it will do it!!! Under $2.00 for a tube of toothpaste, and no need for skilled tradesmen either!!!! Please try it!😀
I bought a paste from China and just polished. looks like new!
Utter bullshit. Do it right or don't do it at all.
Will not last. Once the UV coating is gone, the plastic will fog. No matter how much you polish or sand or apply acetone......unless you replace the UV coating, the fogging will return.
After all the sanding, several light coats of Rustoleum UV resistant clear coat will last 2-3 years.
I agree. This is why after polishing I follow up with a clear 3M film of automotive quality. The shine lasts a very long time. Great idea with Acetone vapor. Clever.
Plexus, work well, just reapply 2-4 times a year.
mit 3 Tropfen Aceton und 2 stunde Arbeit
AS SOON AS SAW THE RED I KNEW THIS WS A HACK
Wczoraj oglądałem jak gość robił to z puszką od cocacola. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. Reklama, reklama, reklama 🤣🤣🤣🤣. A, woda w zupełności wystarczy 😮
Après avoir poncé au 1500 puis au 2000 et enfin au 3000 (grains introuvables en France) n'importe quel polish de bas de gamme fera l'affaire !
А как же всего 3 капли ацетона? Так можно и в автосервис отдать.
Selvap!

Wouldn't it be easier to just use a heat gun...that brings oils in plastic to the surface. If you dont protect it, it's going to come back
Polish it with the sandpaper, use a regular polish on them, clean with alcohol, and clear coat.
Молодец. И просмотры сделал и бабло (на Ютубе) поднял. А что там с фарой будет..., да какая разница. 🙂
Les garagistes c'est pareil ... ils te font payer cher et les phares ternissent car les phares sont faits avec un mauvais plastique
I wasted hours of time and $550 replacing my headlights after all of these voodoo methods made my headlights incredibly worse.
Well isn't that your fault for so readily believing this rubbish
@billyboybliss. Lost me with the can. 🙄
•Wet sand 600g if really badly oxidized.
•wet sand 1000g if still decent.
•Compound with buffer or drill adapter.
•Apply Carnauba Wax for added durability.
•Repeat as needed every year
Lol.. This is not voodoo.. Lol
Professional use this method .. It's called actone vapor polishing..
Lol
You have to get the temp just enough for the actone vapors .. They sell the kit online for less than $20
Naaaaah maaaang
@@cetujavu3466I bet these "professionals" first take few good lung full inhales of acetone frior to performing the service
アセトンでヘッドライトの表面の樹脂を溶かして平面性を出しているだけでしょ。
危ないな。
しかもアセトン気化をすっちゃうので、こんな作業をしたら頭がやられる。
The upside is that when you explode your headlight, the car isn't attached.
Vou fazer 😂
А не проще купить новую .......... МАШИНУ ?
Einfacher schon. Aber eben deutlich teurer... :-(
Vielleicht einfach mit einem neuen (Satz) Scheinwerfer anfangen...
アセトンの蒸気とか、一般人には危険過ぎじゃありません？
Why don't you just use a buffing machine after sanding ??
It would look 10 x better.
The whole world knows the headlamp lenses require us spray.
Do not use wax products on car light covers.
Chemicals make plastic cloudy.
Check the products before using on car light covers / plastic.
I had a cleaning business ...never use wax or furniture polish on any plastic. 😢
「垂らしただけ」とは一体・・・？と考えさせられる動画でした。
Don't leave a drinks can with acetone in it. Either re-label it or destroy it, you never know when a child might pick it up,
А купить нормальную полировочную машинку видно слишком дорого... надо всякие костыли выдумывать
This was probably tiring, and took 30 minutes
I would rather sand with 2000 grit orbital sander. And use rubbing compound and a orbital buffer. Would take 5 minutes and less effort
