My "mothers powerball headlight cleaner" Review

Hey guys, so I was at AutoZone the other day (no I don't buy "performance" parts there haha) and I saw that they had the Mothers power ball headlight cleaner/polisher kit in stock. Since then I had only seen it on TV commercials. So I said whatever I'll spend 25 bucks on it and try it out. So here are some pictures of how it came out. I was pretty happy with the result. Also I might rape your guys margins with the picture size because I'm on my phone sorry.


Here is everything included in the package, One microfiber cloth, 2 sand paper squares (doesnt mention which one only has numbers 1-4 they are double sided), the polishing solution, and the drill attatchment.


Here is a before shot, yellow and cloudy headlights. I didnt plan at doing a thread before I started this so I have a picture of the passenger side dirty but than an after is the driver side light (oh well).


And after, nice and clean!!
