so i wanted to clean up my foggy headlight and i read that some used sandpaper 1000 grit and 2000 grit and some plastic polish and it cleared them up, so i go to try it and i wet sanded with both sandpapers with a mixture of dawn and water, when i started the light fogged up alot but i figured it was the dirt and film build up coming off, but i tried to dry it but it wont come off it looks even worse than when i started, but the funny thing is when i was washing my car i sprayed the light with a strong spped of water and it seems to look very clear then the water sheets off ans its cloudy agian..oo and i treid blue magic plastic cleaner and metal polish but i wont come offf, if any one has any idea wat i can do please let me now thanks

 

It sounds like you can't get the 2000 grit sand scratches to polish out by hand. I use an electric polisher with a foam pad and some good cut polish to buff up headlights and tailights. It always does the trick.

 

i hope ur ur right, thanks

 

let us know how if this does the trick.

 

Does anyone know how to get the water out of your headlights? or do i have to buy brand new ones.....???

 

it workd out pretty well but not as clear as the newwer headlight that i have, so i think im going to buy one, any one know were i could get a deal?
