Headlight restoration shown in 4 minutes

These headlights were pretty yellow. They have some haze from the inside, most likely they are not sealed properly. After sanding and polishing they came out nice. You can learn how I did them in the video.

You can just use a headlight restoration kit if you don't want to buy everything separately

Super job and video...Just think that a UV Laquer should have been applied to seal and protect rather than the wax

#1000, #2000 and then finish with #3000 grit wet sanded and apply 3 years so far.

Just do what they did and then mask and paper off the front and spray Dupli-Color Perfect Match 8 Ounce Clear Spray Paint and no wax or anything needed.

Hmm, so when will the next wax application be required? Since the UV coating has been removed, and now the headlight will prone to yellowing quickly, Thanks

8 hours to do and 4 minutes to admire😁

I find it comical the majority of comments are just nitpicking or complaining about something instead of just saying... Good job.

Beautiful results, but which part of this more than 25 minute procedure fits your title? What is equally important, as mentioned by another viewer, is without some UV protection coating the light will haze again quickly.

nice result. I used meguir's plastic x, just polished it without sanding(im too lazy). I'm satisfied with the result but the oxidation will reappear after a few months. so how long does the wax protect your headlights?

You need UV protection or it fades again!

Use a eraser sponge first then a cutting compound. Same result.
