Would it be good to put the headlight in oven to remove the lens instead of cutting it first ?

I’ve followed this instructions and it was perfect up to where I had to put it in the over Which I did But instead I’ve put it in for 9min and 190degree but it’s bloody melted my LED eagle eye ring 🤦♂️🤦♂️now I have to go buy a new headlight

@@pavmik1 very similar, few differences. Okay I was having trouble getting the “bezel” to come out with old plastic, but just got it off! Now just need to trim/peel the old adhesive then run to store to grab erathane and put new cover on. So far so good. Should I oven bake again before stripping out old adhesive? I do have cutter tool for use. Thanks In advance

@@khayyam947 you don’t necessarily have to, especially since you have a tool but you can try it out maybe it will make it a little easier. I just try to avoid putting a light in the oven as much as I can. In case I forget about it and I come to a melted pile of plastic lol

Im following your process for my BMW headlights. I was able to remove the lens cover and now working to remove the old sealant. In relation to the staples you removed. Did you put them back in after you removed them or you left them out? A few of mine just broke off, so not sure I need them or not.

Hey, I just left them out. The silicone dries stiff
@qa054c10 ай бұрын
Thanks, this helps. Another question, you used silicone instead of Butyl tape (like others use). What was your reasoning for that. I bought butyle tape, but after watching your video I'm leaning towards the silicone. Any thoughts or insights is greatly appreciated.
@pavmik110 ай бұрын
Absolutely! I prefer the silicone because it sticks to pretty much anything. The butyl doesn't stick well to the old silicone that you cut out. @@qa054c

the perfect way to remove the lens is put that headlight to big oven and let it heat so the black glue will melt so you can remove it easily without breaking the old lens. i know it because im one of the employees who’s making headlights of different types of car

Great job!! There's only one thing I would change? The clearcoat and the expensive spray gun? Why because did your clearcoat have UV protection? A must have for long term clarity, There are many quality clearcoats on the market with added UV protection but remember it must be written on the spray can and keep away from 2k clear!!! 😇👍🇬🇧

I was recommended to clearcoat a set of new headlights before I install them. So is it necessary to still sand the surface down and then spray clearcoat or can it just be sprayed directly on it. I was recommended this because the headlight lenses are known to fade easily.
