Sandpaper on Headlight Assembly

Hey SaGe, how you been?

When I bought my car it had a layer of clear primer on the headlights from some messy body shop! It was horrible and nasty, it actually looked all crusty looking.

I asked this question awhile back and through the advise from some members I did the following:

1) Use 800 grit water-sand paper and water-sand your headlight. Note: keep applying water as you do it. I used a spray bottle full of water and kept spraying the light from time to time. (depending on how bad this layer is on your headlights, you can probably skip step 1 and go straight to 2, I can't tell until I see them).

2) Use 1000 grit water-sand paper and do the same as step 1.

3) Use 1500 grist water-sand paper and do the same as step 1.

4) Use a rubbing compound (such as a 3M or I used Turtle wax brand), apply some to a cloth and rub at them for awhile.

5) Use a plastic polishing/scratch remover agent (again I used a turtle wax product but I heard 3M is also good) and do the same as step 4.

Wash your lights and the should look new again. Mine looked 100 times better after I was done with them.

I also recently did the exact same thing to my OEM fogs and they look alot nicer now too.

Good luck.
