Old lady here!! I owned a antique shop. I would get old Bakelite (100yr old plastic) appliances, mostly tabletop radios. They would be oxidized with a white film. I would use "Mothers Mag", you gear heads, muscle car enthusiasts remember this. It was used to polish chrome wheel mags. A very fine abrasive. It revived the color and shine. Same concept.

[@leeparks8672]

I used that before also years ago, never on headlights, maybe I'll try it.

[@RandomAxeOfKindness]

Mother's Mag & Aluminum Polish is cheap and works great. A very small amount will get the job done, and fast. It may harm other surfaces, though, and you'll want to really rinse it off and then (if it's an outdoor item like a headlight) seal the cleaned surface with some UV protectant.

[@armedinbama]

Always good to help a neighbor, especially the elderly! One thing I would suggest is to always record your interactions with the elderly and encourage them to share their memories on video. Not only are they not going to be here much longer, but they have priceless knowledge and experience to share! CHEERS!

[@kenkaniff25]

I'd just like to make some constructive criticism. The compound won't soak into the plastic, it contains a very fine grit, similar to soft scrub cleaner for bathrooms. This grit essentially sands the oxidized layer of plastic off as well as lightly polishing the layer that becomes exposed. Also as a correction, THIS IS NOT PERMANENT. From the factory a layer of UV protection is applied to the surface reducing the time that the sun and elements breakdown the plastic. The process shown in this video will eventually and more rapidly allow for the oxidation to return (depending on the weather in your area). If you'd like for it to last longer, you can purchase a uv protectant spray from your local auto parts store that will add a bit more protection and longevity to the restored plastic. Otherwise this is 100% temporary even with the spray

Compound is not a water repellent. The fact that you make it glossy helps it to repair water or the appearance of.

No matter how completely you polish away the UV damage (not necessarily oxidization) it will quickly return because the UV layer has been depleted and removed.

Two years with clear headlight covers at last! Wet sand, clear coat, and forget!

Rubbing compound is the first step on a new paint job. Smooths out orange peel, and WILL scratch clear coat/paint. Tape the paint off from the lens. If the lens is still a little hazy(happens on some plastic), polishing compound(finer grit) is next. If you're really crazy, or a new restorer(same thing), buffing compound will make it look like glass, but that requires a wheel. Great vid, bud!

Oh my.. catching this video really made me miss my career as a 40 yr Detailer.. the buffer, the 3M compound.. Thank you🔥

[@bc78260]

Hey Josh, Thank you for the tip. I tried it on my old 1995 Ford F150. I thought it was beyond redemption. I did not have any 3M but I did have Meguires. Worked like a charm. Thanks again for the tip.

It's a UV protection coating on the lense from manufacturers that clouds up. When you polish this off you should apply a new spray of UV protection over the lamp

[@curtnicholson7771]

It looks fantastic and it was great of you to help an elderly person out. A definite thumbs up to you!

[@ruthspillman546]

Nice of you to help your neighbor!!! Good job on the headlights!!!

[@sandithompson5265]

you are a good neighbor and I like the product

[@jamminwrenches860]

Awsome job! Replacing the bulbs will make them brighter and not yellow. Always throw one of the good old bulbs in the glove box incase one burns out.

[@denniskazich7559]

The best cure I've seen. Watched several videos. Great job helping others.

[@nancylitton390]

Thanks for the "heads-up". Looks good. Thank you for sharing.

Thanks for this tip, I own a semi truck and my headlights are awfully oxidized, so the difference in night driving would be improved significantly. Also, awesome job helping your elder neighbor, community uplifting is not what it used to be, so for me to see people like yourself doing such things is inspiring to say the least.

Thanks so much!

How did it turn out?

👏 😊

[@danielcrook9504]

This is great ! I was going to buy a kit to do this with but your video showed that is not even needed. Thanks !

[@laural.theune7777]

Wow! I can do this myself. Car wash wants $30. Just happened to see this posting. Thx!!

[@enriqueasebez4834]

Laura L. Theune I thought the same thing! This is awesome!

[@silversurfer1]

Wow I think that's about the best working clouded lense cleaning tip I've seen yet.

[@wyleehokie]

Outstanding!! A buddy is letting me use their family's Honda Fit while my Jeep is in the shop. I've noticed that the headlights are fogged really bad. So, I'm gonna clean their headlights as one way of saying thanks

[@StoneyRidgeFarmer]

Very cool!

[@mountainman615]

This 3M Rubbing Compound works exactly like shown! I’ve been using it for a year! Better than any other headlight restoration kit!

[@StoneyRidgeFarmer]

Amen!

[@naradenaro5218]

Seriously use Colgate and a damp rag works great

[@bennylloyd-willner9667]

@@naradenaro5218 and it's minty fresh😁. Same polish idea, but I'm not sure which is cheapest?

[@bennylloyd-willner9667]

The one thing missing compared to a headlight restore kit is that the kit should include a UV protection coating. Without UV protection, the lens will deteriorate and its not really as "permanent" as mentioned in the video. Just getting some UV protection after this buffing and it is a proper, long lived restoration IMO.

[@StonyAcresEstate]

Great tip! Thanks! In my opinion, rubbing compound does just as good a job and takes less time than the much more expensive "Headlight Restore" kits. Just did my headlights with some rubbing compound today and they look great. Keep up the good work.

[@wesleyshepherd8971]

i have tried the restore kits, waste of money. i used the turtle wax kit.

[@davisfontanes]

Very nice of you to help your neighbor out! Much respect
