Headlight Restoration - DIY

Image
So the headlights on my wife's car were starting to get a little oxidized. This is one of the things I hate about the new poly-carbonate (plastic) headlights.  Yes they are safer, but do require more maintenance.   What will you need for this project: DRILL MASTER - 6 In. Compact Palm Polisher WARRIOR® - 5 In. To 6 In. Fleece Polishing Bonnet NU FINISH - Nu Finish Car Polish   Any brand of toothpaste   Steps to remove oxidization from your headlights: Step 1: Clean the headlight with soap and water. Step 2: Mask off the surrounding area to protect your car from accidental scuffing.  Step 3 : Using the terry cloth and the palm polisher, starting moving the polisher over the surface of your headlights with the toothpaste. You don't need to add a lot of pressure.  Add water and toothpaste as needed, and expect to spend up to five to ten minutes cleaning each affected light. Be sure to keep everything wet!...
