Thank you so much for making this video! I've used Meguiars PlastX on a light lens today where the transparent plastic was yellow instead of clear and it works exactly like you show in this video and it's very easy to work with too. I've polished by hand and the result is very good in my opinion after polishing the light lens multiple times. I'm definitely going to buy this product again!

Better results are to use glass cleaner to rubbing alcohol to PlastX, Each going over twice to ensure cloth you wipe to clean is clean when ..well cleaning surface. Rubbing alcohol is to remove oil residue or water as evaporates quickly and clean. PlastX is great by itself and 2 coats is even better, I use a mustard type squeeze bottle to better control where placing on headlights. Nice video as is a product that when done right(as shown) can give wonderful results.

Its a good tutorial video to restore the clarity and shine!! I've used this product in conjunction with a full 3M restoration kit on my badly degraded headlights, The only difference being after buffing with the PlastX i used Maguires clearcoat with added UV protection the best in my opinion, Also after care is most important for Derabilaty, Every time the car been washed i use Turtle wax headlight polish which as UV protection added, A clean micro fibre cloth a drop of polish rubbed on each lens and left for 5min's and buff by hand works wonders, My headlights still looks clear after 2years!!🤔😳🇬🇧👍

It works great for the fog. But the yellow not really. It depends on how bad your lights are though mine were pretty bad and if u have those little cracks in the light that’s permanent.

One of the main villains in yellowing plastic headlights is UV light, so to minimize the effect of UV from the sun UV resistant clear coat is preferred, rather than wax ... Just sayin' ... :)

You just should’ve swapped the jobs for the pads.. the black one should’ve been for the 3 in 1 wax, while even tho the plastix was a “polish” for EXTRA CUTTING POWER….. I think you should’ve used the orange pad

I hope you’re not backing that phony antenna add, linked in your video that claims to allow you to receive satellite tv. It’s not possible to receive satellite signals on regular TV antenna. I know these are considered what they call shotgun adds which you have no control over, but you should be allowed to pick reputable advertisers.
