Another well done vid, good info. Will try the stacking next time on mine. Tru that, went from ground 0 to pro, well almost. Your vids gave me the info to do it 👍👍🤘🤘
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🤓🦾💯
You read my mind....I was going to ask if you ever tried stacking 2 interface pads like a sandwich. I was also going to ask if you ever had to use something heavier than the P500 disc. You answered both my questions! I used your links and bought everything, much appreciation my friend!
🙏🙏🙏🦾💯
Great videos, awesome process and explanation. Definitely going to use your method and the products you recommend in the 3m kit!
Thanks for watching.......
Definitely the best that I have came across....all products listed in the link of the bio..👍🏼💯🤓
Great info ! I am just getting started and have only done a few lights, but have learned a lot from your videos, so thank you for the education. I am looking forward to seeing a video on dealing with a K2000 previous job, and your process to get back to perfection. I have seen some lights where a guy said he had some guys do a job for $25, and they did not last and was horrible to get off ! I think the guy learned a valuable lesson of getting what he paid for... maybe !
Exactly getting what you paid for is a huge thing in any situation...
Hopefully that guy learned his lesson.. there's guys out there putting stuff on headlights meant to seal concrete, just destroying lights underneath it and you'll be okay for a week but then you'll start seeing the difference...lol
Better to make sure you got the right guy doing the right stuff...
Thanks for watching appreciate it got a lot more content up and a lot more coming soon....
@@theheadlightrestorationpro Thats for sure ! He said he could barely see at night time, it got so bad. Literally took me 45 minutes on one headlight to get that crap off. The entire job took nearly 2 hours to get the old crap off. But once done, he was blown away. Looked "almost" as good as yours bro!! LOL Curious on your opinion of what to charge when you get these kind of jobs.
Always charge extra but as starting off you might want to just get the business first and foremost... But it's definitely a 2K clear light... It's the worst thing for us to be trying to remove I hate doing them but it's part of the job.. the doubles the time on a headlight restoration makes things a lot more trickier and riskier..
Keep up the good work..👍🏼😎💯
@@theheadlightrestorationpro Thanks a lot !
These headlights are similar to a 2005-2010 Jeep Grand Cherokee.
Is wet sanding only during the 3000 grit disc stage ? I keep missing this part in the videos I've seen
do you have a video with the camera back a little so we can see how you grip the drill while sanding and sealing the lights at different angles.....thanks for sharing all that you have learned
All that should be on many videos I don't know I've had but there's a lot of videos up and most of them do that.. you just have to look for them...
If I can't get the foam trizact pads but can only find the p3000 pad only would you suggest using the interact pad for the added softness similar to the trizact but cheaper? (Trizact p3000 vs p3000 with interface)
The trizact pad isn't so much about padding.. it's about the way the granulates are cut on the pad they're very high tech and they're like pretty much diamond cut instead of and circular or orbital type granulate.
That's the secret of their magic..
But either one will do just make sure you do it to the proper point if it takes more it takes longer just get it done...
Thanks for the question..
Stay tuned much more to come
Hey brother appreciate the video. Can you update your product list as promised from the other day. Thanks!
Very busy I do this and full-time job., Family and everything... Plus about a million people contacting me literally 100,000 asking for stuff.... I will get to it when I get to it sorry for the delay..
Brother do you always use two of each disc during the restoration process except the 3000 disc or do you go off of the grit leftover after a couple off passes?
No... Typically I go off of one grit per light on small to medium normal lights...
But there are so many different things that go on that you have to adjust to the light.. Meaning you have to use enough to get your desired effect..If you keep watching different ones you'll see a different amount a lot just because of the size, coatings, how bad the light is etc..
I use them Only until they stop being effective and or efficient...
This is how you get to the Pro depth especially with p 500 ...so you don't have to use that many p 800 because they are 2wice as expensive.
Vocals very much clearer, too!
Awesome thank you been working on it.. 😂😆😂 lol
3M Lens compound or Chemical guys headlight restorer? I know you have both listed but Amazon doesn't have the 3M hard lens compound right now but I can still get it......wanted to know your preference? Thanks!
Nothing compares to the 3m products..
If you want a couple of my videos you'll definitely see that...ruclips.net/video/bX1jeS29Ei0/видео.html
Thank you again for answering so many questions for those of us that are brand new to this. I picked up the 3M restoration kit that comes with the P 500 P 800 and 3000 and as well as the Orange polishing pad and I noticed that the rubbing compound that comes with that kit from 3M is 39002. What is your opinion when you compare the 39002 with the 39017 lens compound ?
If the 39002 kit compound is sub-standard, I will avoid.
Thank you again!
Anything 3M is always going to be the best... But the hard lens polish is going to be a lot better.. both will do the trick but if I had to pick it would be definitely the 3M hard lens polish... Appreciate you watching thank you for all the support...
@@theheadlightrestorationpro thank you, that's very helpful!
I'm going to order the hard lens polish from your Amazon link now👍👍 Thanks again!
Awesome man...I appreciate...slot of great deals in the bio...
@@theheadlightrestorationpro Amazon dropped off the 3M hard lens polish earlier than expected so I was able to do head light restoration yesterday and it came out beautifully! I used all of the 3M Products that you use in your videos and they worked perfectly .Thank you again sir!
Hey great double stuff action, can I use my 7424 polisher for headlight restoration? It has 6” hook and loop but am wondering if I can put 3 “ on it?
No...not at all... Highly wouldn't recommend it even with a 3 in it's too big... You have a hard time reaching areas and if it's a DA.... it's not the proper rotation for headlights...
@@theheadlightrestorationpro Thanks, I kinda figured that but wanted to hear it from the pro. I was thinking of getting the rupe cordless, what are your thoughts on that one?
Had an inquiry... got a client who tried to "buff" out and polish his own headlights with a 1 speed Dewalt and burned 'em, is it possible to fix? Or replace..
You won't know till you try....
how long does the meguiars coating typically last clients?
A long time if taking care of probably... Going 4 plus years on my vehicle...
But average normal person 15-20 months at brand new state with moderate care.
Where can we get that little hand held blower to blow the dust of the headlights when sanding?
Every I use is in the bio...the written part..
There are direct links that take you to where I get them from...
@theheadlightrestorationpro thank you I'll check pit the description
link an good option for a spindle and i'd buy it.
👍🏽
How long it took you to do the 2 headlights? Great job an thank you for you advice 👍🏾👊🏾
It actually is considerably faster in real life.. I have to slow down and move around the camera... Generally it'll take me about 15 minutes once taped per light... About 45 minutes a car...
how much would you charge for a restoration? i can come to you. california here as well.
Now we're more than likely very far away from each other.... And I don't really operate business off of this platform... Wish I could...
@@theheadlightrestorationpro i see. what platform would you prefer?
👍🏽
Amazon is all out of McGuire's clear coating spray damn
Not completely out.. just not on prime delivery last I checked and I'll take like a week to get to you... There's some other places you can get it for close to the price.
@@theheadlightrestorationpro will do thanks
@uber6ify 👍🏽
Just ordered the new blower, lightning deal on Amazon $35
Hell yeah 👍🏽..great deal...smart...hope you used my links..😊
@@theheadlightrestorationpro yeah I posted on one of your other videos a couple days ago I’ve ordered pretty much everything have most of it now, Monday I should be complete! Will be doing my headlights first, asap.
Awesome let me know how it went emails in the bio..
Does your method work on taillights also?
Yes.. good question I'm waiting on somebody to call for tail lights it's more rare but yes I have done numerous tail lights works the same they go bad at a rate much slower... Because they're red. But the same exact process can be used for tail lights same material just different color...
Very good question. Thanks for watching stay tuned..
@@theheadlightrestorationpro I suspected as much. Thanks for your input. Time to hire a sidekick and name him The Tailight Restoration Pro 💪
🫣🤓🦾💯☺️
Do you clean the caps after each day?
For the cans ???
No ... Remarkably the tops are really airtight.. the cats perfectly, no clogging or nothing... Put top back on and let it sit till next time...
Great videos. Cool it down with the animations/graphics. It gets in the way of your real art.
That's what it is ... that's what I do ..👍🏽
Thanks for watching..

4:20 so the more foggy the light the more rougher sandpaper you use?
Not necessarily but kind of if that makes sense.. sometimes it's better to use just multiple discs because there's a lot of buildup or a lot of damage multiple p500s... But there's other times when you should be able to distinguish about a couple seconds in of using the p500 that you will need something greater... This is a more rare occasion so rare I haven't even had a chance to do it on film yet.. it's generally when there's a 2K light or something sprayed on the light that's not supposed to be there.. or even sometimes when there's just so much damage to the light making the light extra hard and or the material coming up the pad...
They come with side effects as a video says you're going to have to do more work behind them.. so you only want to use them when you have to.. for preservation of time and supplies..
Thanks for watching
Can a noob that dose not want to take too much off on the headlight do there own headlight just do one pass of p500 paper and then to 800 then 3000 is that ok?
You could...it would take a lot more time and money...the price of the p800 are twice as much. Maybe even more at times...but you could....
7:30 how can a noob know if my headlight as polishing and other headlight additives on it like on a old car that has not been work on in years ?
It takes time and experience.. but general rule of thumb is when you're sanding dry sanding you can kind of feel it and also see it.. it should feel nice and easy coming off with no side effects.. you should feel yourself going through the clear coat and then the headlight and if clear coat is gone you should feel the headlight coming off very nicely.. when the sandpaper starts sticking and grabbing and doing weird stuff and it's not a smooth feel you know something's going on.. but in general it takes a lot of time you have to first figure out what a normal light is I can bridge the gap but really nothing can show you that except for experience.
