    Thumbs up Meguiars Headlight Restoration Kit

    I just tried this kit last night, and I have to say, it actually worked pretty good. My lights are not as bad as some, but I would say this kit can make them look good again if you have bad clouding and minor scratches.

    did you use drill with buffing ball???

    did you follow instructions on the back or make up your own because my headlights look like crap?

    Yes, the kit comes with a microfiber towel, the polish, and the buffing bit pictured above. I attached it to my drill and went to town for about 15 minutes. My lights were looking better after I used the Quixx kit from Walmart, but this definitely finished the job nicely. This kit took out most of the scratches and weird cloudiness. The only thing I didn't like, was that the buffer piece supplied with the kit made all sorts of fuzzies go everywhere. Other than that, it worked pretty good on my lights. I got the kit at Kragen.

    Nice! I’m using Bluemagic headlight restorer about 4 times a year. It would be nice if there was something that I didn’t need to use as often. I’ll try this stuff the next time I do it.

    Thanks Bart!

    Price was a little much, $24.99. I think if you have a buffing ball for your drill, all you need is the polish then, which is sold separately.

    I don't know if I have any really good before shots, but I can post some after shorts real quick here in a minute.

    Price seems pretty reasonable compared to some of the other stuff out there.
