    Headlight Restoration

    IndianaVX has a nice wright up in the "How To" section, but this one is a bit different. I am not sure it is as effective, because I can't compare mine to his. However, mine did work pretty good ... Sorry no before & after pics.

    I went to Wal-Mart and found a silver package: Crystal View Headlight Restorer/Defogger MyHeadlight.com. I followed the instructions exactly, even timing the polish time and I am very pleased with the end result. This package cost me $20

    Same here!!!

    In an earlier thread I mentioned this stuff, I did post before/after pix. It did quite well, but I went overboard on the sanding and polishing, I used there times as minimums.
    There was some concern as to how the finish would last, will I have to say, they still look great. VERY clear still.
