Hey all, just want to share some headlight restoration results pics. I wish I documented the restoration process but I didn't have much time and had to rush to get it done.
I'll tell you this is a hell of a lot better than before. The hazing was probably worse than what you've ever seen. This is because I tried to restore it a few years ago and the clear coat I used wasn't made for high-temp (I think) so it turned yellow and got super oxidized to the point where you can scrape the oxidation with your nail. Looked real nasty.
It did take a lots and lots of sanding by hand cause I didn't have the tools so my arms were sore for the next couple days. I bought a kit and used the sealer at the end of the process to keep it from hazing again. If it does then thats ok, it has a lifetime guarantee.
Enjoy.
