How to clear up scratches on headlights

OhMyGodItsDanny · 11-06-02, 11:00 PM

After 3 hours I'm done with my one piecer. High beam, low beams, and even fogs are working but one problem... the damn lenses are have tiny scratches there there are a few scratches that is deep. How do I clean up these scratches?

Go to the thread "polishing headlights," I believe it was started by SpeedDemon.. I followed his procedure with amazing results-

I highly recommend it.

Are the one piece headlight lenses made of the same materials as our USDM headlights? Don't want to make the headlight any worste. Can I substitute the Meguiars's plastic cleaner with another brand of plastic scratch remover/cleaner? They all work the same don't they?

I'd assume that they are made out of plastic even though I don't have any. That's all that matters. I know that the EDM ones are made out of glass, so this won't work on them. Good luck!
