I know I should have probably put this in the detailing section but I figured more people would see it in the 4th gen fourm...as it also relates directly to the 4th gen. Anyways I should be getting a used set of uncracked fogs...but I want them to look brand new...or as close to new as possible. I do not think wetsanding would be a good method like done on headlights...only because you would scratch the glass too much and wouldnt be able to polish it out. Anyone have a good method to clean these things to look new?

 

Mothers aluminum polish is what I used to make our 01 Tundra's lights look brand new, headlights and fogs.

 

Were they glass or plastic tho?

 

heres what i used to restore my headlights and fog lights
was really pleased wit the results
you can get it at walmart, for $2 .97 in the auto section in the touch up paint area

sry for the crap photo, didicam broke

 

That stuff is magic!

 

I used Plastx. it's a plastic polish, I think meguire's makes it. It comes in a white bottle

 

I bought something like that and it only did the job half way and when I checked out at Wally world the ****ing scanner scanned the bottle twice and I ended up paying $16 for a small pack of triple a batteries and that **** caz I didn't want to make people wait. The aluminum polish is better which what I was going to get but decided to get the plastic one since the headlights plastic.

 

Yea but the foglights are plastic folks....

 

 

I've had very good success using a mildly abrasive polish such as fine-cut polish or aluminum polish. Take your time and polish to smooth the surface, not dig scratches into it.

hahahaha you knew what i meant

 

the fogs are glass on the 4th gen. I just changed a *** bulb last night and noticed how pitted my fogs are. I would love to gert them taken care of. Is this aluminum polish good for glass?
