    Hi Brad, great job! the other day I did a headlight restoration with your method on a 2007 Dodge ram. They were one of the worse headlights i've done. Question for ya, in this video you sprayed from bottom to the top of the headlight, which in every other video you go from top to bottom, is there a reason why you did that on these headlights?

    • @StartRestoringHeadlights
      @StartRestoringHeadlights  Місяць тому +1

      Thank you Keith! For some, it does. When you have shape edges you have to be very careful when it comes to spraying, because it can build up and cause a drip. For this particular one, no, it didn't matter. A good example would be the 2019 Silverado.

    Thats how mine look. I just used the turtle wax kit and the sand paper they provided did not even faze mine! I used everything I had laying around and nothing worked.

    I did this to a Toyota Tundra, lasted about a year. I did it with a name brand kit like Turtle Wax or something, don’t remember. I’ve been watching a lot of videos about the best products for trim and headlights, Cerakote seems to have the best results. I may try their kit.

    • @StartRestoringHeadlights
      @StartRestoringHeadlights  Рік тому +1

      Cerakote is great! However, clear coat application is best for headlights, since you can control the amount of coverage for each square inch. When using wipes, the area where you start is going to have more material/product on it, than where you finish.

    Hola ¿,Cuanto tiempo seca al aplicarlo? Y ¿cuanto tiempo dura el brilo para volver a pulir?

    • @b2clown
      @b2clown Рік тому +1

      Tarda como 10 minutos para secarse y como una hora para curarse pero tiene que ser en el sol. El manufacturero dice que puede durar asta 5 años o más la claridad si mantienes tu carro bien. Con este clear coat no se pule. Solo usas lija de 400 y 600

    600 and thats it ? I would think you would end at about 2000 before spray ?

    • @StartRestoringHeadlights
      @StartRestoringHeadlights  Рік тому

      Correct. For this method, 600 only. The clear coat has filling properties in it, which adds a much gives a thicker coat of protection.

      If it’s similar to the hard to find clear coat in the old “lightbrite” kits - I sorta had mixed results…. After one year it was clear but it always had sort of a satin texture….
      I have had great results with meguiars on 2 vehicles but have not really tested the whole year timeline…. I am told the Megs says one year only to be conservative - so in reality if someone actually washes their vehicle = they likely will get a longer time period out of it

      @@07wrxtr1 I haven't heard of the lightbrite ones, but after doing a Google search, they do look pretty old. But yes, I tell all my customers when they ask about maintenance. Lack of cleaning the headlight is one of the biggest factors in clearcoat deterioration. We get mixed times on our customers when it comes to callbacks.
