Use vinegar! Worked for me. Realized this cuz bug splatter somehow cleared my lens. Bug splatter is acidic. Vinegar is acidic :) but barely.

nail polish ------> then Rubbing Compound -----> GOOD WAX = clear as hell headlights. That simple:firehair:

I think you mean nail polish remover (with acetone).
|
yeah, that's what I meant, but get the kind without Acetone, won't melt the plastic :)

this thread is so old, I doubt ill get a response, but here goes, The inside of my headlights are cloudy(at least i think its the inside) what causes that to happen?
|
UV radiation from the sun

You can save yourself a whole lot of time, energy, and effort if your simply buy 3M skins for your headlights. They have a clear film that simply adheres to your headlights. It not only saves your headlights from the effects of exposure to the elements, but it also protects your headlights from stone chipping. They are sold by a whole bunch of companies under different names. Some are X-pel Automotive survival, Weather Tech by Mac Neil, Star Shield Armour. After the skins start to show wear Your simply use a hair dryer to heat them and peel them off. They are warranteed to never yellow.

Originally posted by Glazedham42 You guys don't need to bother wet sanding anymore.... I've discovered a better way to fix the hazy lenses. You'll need.. 1) Rubbing Compound 2) Scratch Out or Haze Remover 3) Nail Polish Remover 4) A Good Wax 5) Some towels and rags ....... At first when I did it, they looked clearer but still had a yellow tinge to them. But then my brother was like, maybe its the house's reflection (our house is yellow). So I back up a bit, and they are clear white, yay!:D before :mad: After! :D Wow, look at the difference... I also did it too my mom's Astro, and again had awesome results... before after THANKS ALOT! |
well that did work good now im gonna have to try that on my girls 01 eclipse cause her head lights look like they were about to miles from the sun and got really discolored so ill try it and post some more pics so peeps can see more results

I did mine with:
Non-acetone nail polish remover rubbing compound polishing compound And just scrubbed quite well, came out perfect. Warning: If you're going to use a haze remover/scratch remover, be careful what you choose. I forget the name of mine, but I had done it on my 91 protege, and something had made the yellow go away, but then when it dried, the plastic clouded up. I was working on a plastic computer case, and used this, and it did it to it as well, so thats how I know it was the problem. It was in a yellow bottle with red text, came from walmart, if it helps ;) this lasted about 5 months on the protege before they started to be discolored again |
