Restored headlights

Just used turtle wax headlights restoration kit not bad for 8 bucks, next up for me to clear the corners!

Came out nice. They might go back to being hazy again soon but you can always redo them.

Yeah that product didn't work out too well for me. I'm going to get a drill and use the 3M one whenever I can. Looks like it turned out well for you though?

Apply a sealant to the headlights and it'll keep em looking like that for longer.

Thos kits basically remove whatever UV protection that was left on the headlight now you will need to do this over and over every so many months because i have to do the same thing.Some type of urethane UV clearcoat is needed to slow that down.

I used that on sone junkyard headlights I picked up. Best $8 spent. The lenses were so yellowed and hazy you couldn't even see the reflector inside. After using that they looked brand new. 8 months later and they still look great.
