What can I use to clean my headlights?
Someone told me about a compound that can be used to clean your headlights to make them look practically new again. Does anyone know of such a thing? I have a slight haze to my headlights and I would like to polish them a bit. Let me know what you guys have tried.

You can always wet sand them with 2000 grit sand paper & hit them with the buffer........

Nissan recommends 3M Plastic Polish to their service departments to clear up haze build-up on headlights. I couldn't find that locally, so I picked up a bottle of Kit Scratch Out and it works great. I got that from Pep Boys or Autozone, I can't remember.
Peace. |
Haven't tried it personally yet, but I heard that 3M Plastic Polish is sposed to be good...
|
I used Blue Magic Plastic & Plexiglass Cleaner. I bought it at Autozone for about 5 bucks. I used a buffing pad to apply it. It worked really good.
|
I also used the Blue Magic Plastic Polish and Cleaner and was very happy with the results. I used my polisher with it on my headlights and the haze came off in less than a minute.
|
Thanks guys, I'm going to give the Blue Magic a try. I'll see if I can get some before and after shots.

My headlight after Plexus: http://www.innerbean.com/housecor/im...e/IMG_2536.jpg I was clearing my headlights, and left them apart for about 2 weeks. They got full of dust which I tried cleaning off with water and the light got real hazy looking. I tried rubbing alcohol and 3M plastic cleaner/polish and it is still there. I need to remove this "haze" so I can put the light back together. I am talking about the mirror finish on the two main headlights in this picture. Any ideas? |
Anyone?
