Valuable lesson learned: Couldn't get the first headlight to look decent no matter what I did. Just as I started the second headlight, my drill died, and no extra battery for it. I went to my electric drill, which is WAY higher RPM. Headlight #2 turned out PERFECT! This made me go back to the first headlight and redo as best I could, but the sandpaper was pretty much shot by then. Lesson: use a high RPM drill! That second headlight looks brand new. The first one looks a thousand times better, but you can still see marks and cloudiness in spots....
One thing to watch out for, when you use the protectant, make sure you don't put too much on. For some reason mine came very full and when I went to wipe on the protect it, there was a ton of it going on to my headlight. So I was getting ripples, etc. because there was a lot of it going on. Some drips. So I tried to wipe off a lot of this crazy excess. But unfortunately, it had already started drying so quickly that I made some streaks across my headlights. It ended up drying that way and now I have some streaks on my headlights. So make sure to squeeze a bunch of that excess off of the rag before you put it on the headlight. Other than that, it really works 100%. My headlights are extremely clear, but have some faint streaks from the excess protectant. But you have to be right on top of it to see it..
@@gm0826715 Yes , if you made a mistake while applying the sealant just let it dry completely I would recommend one day and then repeat the steps of sanding again. That has happened to be before. Hope that helps
There are some videos of people using this product Without a power drill, and just using their hands .... and old fashioned elbow grease ... one guy seemed to get good results that way, too ... would you agree that you can do this Without a drill?
@@Autofusionchannel .... ok I just finished! lol I put on too much polish, but .... I guess that's okay. I am going to go get my car washed now, in about an hour .... as some of the polish is on the car ... some splattering and what not .... I would say it got my headlights 85% better. Not perfect, but worth one Andrew Jackson, for sure
personally don’t think you need it the polish.comes off with alittle bit of water and a clean microfiber towel. I didn’t notice any residue and had great results.

Thanks for sharing your experience sounds like they may need to offer a heavy duty version. For more severe headlight oxidation .

Awe man that suxs but thank you for sharing.
Well made video
Thank you I appreciate it 👍👍
About how long did it take you to do both? And how long have the results lasted?
@@crystalrager5734 this was a while back I want so say about 30min or so.
What can you do if you make a mistake? Can you send that down? And start over

About how much time to do the pair of headlights with this kit?
If I remember correctly it was about a year .
There are some videos of people using this product Without a power drill, and just using their hands .... and old fashioned elbow grease ... one guy seemed to get good results that way, too ... would you agree that you can do this Without a drill?
Yes I believe you can, it will just take longer

@@groofoot that’s awesome glad it worked out for you . 👍👍
Would anybody recommend cleaning the headlight good with rubbing alcohol before applying the sealer?

@@alanwhitsitt5196About how long did it take you to do both? And how have your results held up?
Is that water?
Yes I believe I used distilled water just because we have really hard water in Texas.
