    I'm really impressed with the product. Thanks to watching this video, I went ahead and did two my cars, since you said it was good for 4 headlights. Lol, I might have been able to have done another one of my vehicles, but it's at the other house. I don't normally comment, but thought this product deserves credit. Plus video said I could do 4 headlights get credit too. I did prefer to sand and polish in a back forth motion instead of circular or random. Circular causes swirl marks IMO.

    I have an 09 Corolla in almost mint but the headlights look like crap, faded and yellow. I used this product and the lights look brand new. It was easy to apply, just follow the directions. Great product! I'd highly recommend it.

    Just did mine. I used sprayway glass cleaner instead of water and it worked great. Sanded very detailed and kept going until there was an even haze over the entire lens - and then used the wipe. The wipe was still so saturated when I was done my buddy let me use it on his lights and didn't even want them sanded. Still worked, just not as well but still cleaned it up a lot.

    • @Hailyeah555
      @Hailyeah555 3 роки тому

      As long as it a UV top coat. The reason it is yellow or foggy to begin with is because the factory top coat is gone and the polycarbonate is discolored since it is not a uv resistant material. If you don’t add a uv topcoat, your lights will yellow again

      You really have to sand it for 20-30 minutes for extreme results. The whipe is basically an oil based lubricant to shine out the plastic (think armor all on your dash). 6 months you’ll be doing it again

    • @MartinsUsedCarsCollectiblesLLC
      @MartinsUsedCarsCollectiblesLLC  2 роки тому

      Then let it dry completely until it looks more cloudy then when you started. Then apply the clearing agent. Some headlight may have too much oxidation on them to show perfect results.

  • @bobbg9041
    @bobbg9041 3 роки тому +1

    You might go a step further and buff the light's with toothpaste yes it works, then wash it off and put this on, but I believe a UV protect spray would last longer or even a UV curing clear top coat.
