  • Using a $6.00 polishing wheel for a drill, and a white polishing bar, I restore a nasty, yellow and dingy headlight to near new like quality.

    Definitely on the right track, as far as removing oxidation. Looks much better.

    If you have 20% illumination and you raised it to 90% illumination I would call that a win 👍⭐😎🏆

    Definitely faster than sanding and spraying with clear but not the same optical clarity. how long does this method hold up?

      Since it removes all the oxidation layers built up over the years it it’s like starting over

      And it is the same optical clarity, the only problem is if you have any sort of inside contamination like a faulty seal it won’t do anything for that just this is all external

    Definitely not the best method. But it is fast.

    "Acrost" is not a word, it's "across". I wonder if this works as well as Mother's Mag & Aluminum polish using the same style of polishing wheel. Hmm

      Wrong wheel and wrong polish. And wrong moment for being Mr. Grammar. Those lenses are far from being being done, agree. They were too far gone to bring back the easy way. They need 2 stage treatment.

      @@vegasbluedevil7328 I've used it. It's not a big revelation. It wouldn't be worth a darn on headlights as bad as the ones in the video before he started.
      The easier the method you use to do this generally, the less acceptable AND lasting the result. These where near opaque. Needed to have the oxidation removed before polishing.
      The Mothers polish gives mediocre results on severely oxidized headlight lenses. That's not what it's designed for. There's a hundred ways to do this, only 3-4 are worth the effort.
      If this guy in the video is OK with that result, he has a low bar.
      And you are just being a little snit with the grammar issue. This is YT, nobody gives a Bump.

      @@x-man5056 You clearly haven't used Mothers mag polish. It works perfectly even on severely oxidized lights. Agree to disagree. And as far as grammar, somebody has to care. Apparently I'm the only one.
