@@AlbertoFonseca-t1v Any type of good quality polishing compound will do! but here is the Key! you must spray on some type of UV rays protecting coat on your head lights! soon after, or else they will return to their dull foggy way. (Make sure they are nicely dried and cleaned before you do it! spraying evenly from left to right making sure you do not spray over the paintjob) Tip. To get even better results? Use borrow/ rent. or buy a mini battery or electrical polisher add small amounts of polishing compound on a new polishing pad then wipe clean after each pass with a new microfiber hand towel and check your progress. Mine looks like I just bought them brand new from the dealership yesterday and it's been seven and a half months since I did mine. Good luck!
For more severe oxidized headlights, I start with Bon Ami, then I move to the toothpaste which, serves as a finer abrasive. I move to fine sandpaper when I feel no resistance while sanding. I rinse the headlight, dry it, apply car wax and I'm done. I will try the WD-40 next time. I'm not clear what polishing agent you used, but I'll look into it. Very close to my method. Thanks.
Headlight was already cleaned with something else. You can clearly see the line separation where he retapes the Headlight like it's already been taped off before..
I'm from Baltimore Maryland. I don't know how many times I froze this video to see what kind of gell it was. EXXE men fresh. I'll Give it a try and post a video of the before and after. I'm going to use the toothpaste as well. I hope it works and thanks! You'll save me $200.
I went out, purchased what I needed from Home Depot and CVS Pharmacy. I may have done it longer than shown. About 30 minutes. And these lamps were horrible. And now...WOW!!! Not like brand new, but pretty damn close. Try it, you will be amazed!!
@@adrianjohnson9122 UV clear seal, I use mothers rubbing compound, then mothers mag and chrome polish, the got some UV protection clear seal spray. Some of the bud stains will not come all the way off. But by rubbing they will face enough to improve your light to about 90%.
I’m glad I’m not the only one to catch that the toothpaste isn’t needed. You don’t need the “abrasive particles” of the toothpaste if you’re using sandpaper
Seems like even if it's not necessary, it's a good 2 in 1 scrubbing effect. Not sure why to purposely exclude it. Unless you have good reason I'm missing (I'm not very car maintenance savvy)
@ You can achieve the same finish doing everything in the video without using toothpaste, and just using water and sandpaper instead. But it has to be wet/dry sand paper. You start with about 220P then move up in grit from there. You can start at a finer grit by using a polishing compound that is actually made for polishing headlights with sandpaper. Toothpaste is expensive, where the actual compound, while it costs more than toothpaste, can be used multiple times unlike the full tube per headlight in the video. But the compound is still not necessary.
@@iammelon7803 You answered your own question. The toothpaste tapers down the 1000 grit he started with. we all have a lot of toothpaste at home already but not the other compound you're talking about. Basically, toothpaste paired with 1000+ grit sandpaper is a great engineering solution to reduce friction which could scratch the light while sanding for this case. Results are excellent.

@@mariabentley6481 See the thing ith wd40 is that is clears of the yellow haziness to an extent but the headlight fogginess remains intact and adds a bit f shine but u wont feel its like new if its oxidiozed so much. wd40 as temprory is good but like after a week or so u will notice the haziness again for that apply a wax u find in house or smtg but before all this try the toothpaste method

Hello I’m from Réunion Island a French department in the Indian Ocean. Your vdo is very instructive. If you have any information regarding the traces of limescale impregnated on the windows of my car. Looks always dirty. Thank you very much indeed.
You should wipe it with a clean cloth using grape vinegar. I had previously driven in an area with very lime water and the lime marks on the windows were a very bad image. Vinegar is the clear solution.
@@sr4865 i guess those are simple lights, not the curved ones of modern cars. I suspect you know little how expensive modern glass headlights would be and those you list are from 3rd world countries without any consideration to safety.
@@theDudeknows if something is better, why can't it be brought back. The glass doesn't fade like plastic ones. I used to ride KTM DUKE 390 which had glass headlight which was so much better, helpful compared to headlight of plastic in 4 Wheeler which used to be tough especially in rainy season.
my mechanic used old 2000 sand paper, water and polishing compound , it was done in five minutes, looks brand new, thanks for the info.
What kind of compound wassit?

I remember when headlights were made of glass. They were brighter and cheaper too. And let's not forget a lot easier to replace and adjust.
And left glass shards on the highway after an accident.
A lot easier to replace? All you have to do is turn the bulb out put a new one in and and no adjustment needed.
OLD BUT GOLD 👍🙏
