How To Clean, Polish & Restore FOGGY Car Headlights Back To Clear!

Restore bright, clear headlights with ease! Headlight plastic is sensitive to harsh UV rays, which fade the plastic, turning it hazy and opaque. Clean your foggy headlights quickly and easily with today's video. Simply rub the refined cream formula into the faded headlight plastic with a buffing microfiber towel until it turns clear. Micro-abrasives blended into the formula remove the need for purchasing sandpaper and peel back layers of dead plastic that block light and dull the clarity of the headlamp, revealing crystal-clear plastic underneath. Sand away thick oxidation from headlight plastic with 2000 grit, then refine the marks with 3000 grit before polishing to crystal-clear perfection. Try removing bird poop etching stains with 3000 grit first, then turn to 2000 grit only if you have to. Multiple sandpaper grits make the Hyper Flex sanding system flexible and versatile for taking down any detailing task.

Used your complete clay bar kit a while ago, which made a massive difference to the look and feel of my car!

[@stevesauck7001]

Do you know if O’Riellys or Advanced Auto sell this stuff? Or did you order it?

[@kmlumd44]

I just did this job with 400, 600, and 2000 grit sandpaper from harbor freight, and a can of rustoleum gloss clear coat and it came out perfect. You don't need all this stuff. The bottom line to doing this job is the prep work, and that means taking ur time and doing a quality wetsand job. Circular motions work well, just end it going side to side. And don't press hard with 400 or 600. Spend a lot of time using 2000.

[@rparker2824]

I used the C4 on my headlights with an orange pad and it did a beautiful job.

[@ChemicalGuys]

Enjoy your detailing products!!

[@jeremyahmadi]

Did you use P4 after C4 or just C4 by itself on the headlights?

[@APACFILM662]

Well it is a video about a headlight

[@Acespaceraceterrace]

3 methods i found and tried for headlight restoration 1 with acetone vapor 2 applying uv protectant clear coat 3 polishing one and the polishing I prefer the polishing as the video for me but i seat it with ceramic coating gives extra shine

[@usaahsan]

Results are awesome!! I have used the product and gets the awesome results but after 12 months you start to see the hazey headlight again so my question is do we have to use the sandpaper again or just use the headlight restorer? Thank you

[@philg6115]

This is because the sealant doesn't actually work. You need a clear coat paint for sun protection.

[@usaahsan]

Could you please send the link for that?

[@philg6115]

@@usaahsan no link. Clear coat paint. Any hardware store carries it

[@ils360]

​@@usaahsanThe clear coat paint should specifically say non-yellowing and or UV resistant

[@threesixty4486]

I wonder how this sealant compares to multiple layers of clearcoat.

[@ChemicalGuys]

Great question, we will make sure to make a video on this topic!

[@franchesconieves1120]

If the clear coat doesn’t state for headlights, do not use it. It’s called liability.

[@Rpeices]

Just a question and maybe the comment section can help me out with this. I have been watching a lot of restoration videos and most of them start with like 6 or 800 grit. Just wondering if using the 2000 will be enough to show results ? Also thanks for the video I use mostly Chemical Guys products as well.

[@rogermedina3615]

How long does the sealant last? it wasnt metioned in the video? a few washes or a couple of days or weeks? months? years? Please elaborate thank you.

[@patriciapalmer3899]

Great vid, Henry. Would love to try this on my 2002 Honda Odyssey. Can you give me an idea of how long the process took start to finish? I know for each step you said you were working on it for “a couple minutes.” Do you actually mean around two minutes? It’s okay if it’s longer. I just need an idea of how much time to set aside to get through all the steps. THANK YOU!

[@xNoLiix]

If you're a novice and want to make sure you don't mess anything up, I'd say with double-checking the sandpaper you use etc and being careful, around 30min per headlight unit (including masking it off)

[@kalebehrbar8292]

What speed should I run my drill for polish?

[@ChemicalGuys]

Hey! We recommend using it at a medium-high setting but be sure to keep moving it to prevent hot spots. Thanks for watching!

i got a question what do i need to start detailling my car but live in a apartment

[@maheshraghavaraju9906]

I was in this situation before. So what I did was, I woke up at 5 AM in the morning and completed the detailing process before 8 AM and that is it. But if you want to have your car any damage free then I would suggest a garage for your car. But that is what I did when I was staying in an apartment.

[@MtnRose]

What if you don’t have any of those 😅 any more affordable ways?

[@vikbecerra4714]

How often should we use headlight restore after a finished restored headlight job? Or should we go through the whole process again?

Hey! Use Headlight Restorer as needed to maintain crystal clear lenses.
