Front lights

[Wyard14]

Where can i find some stuff that will get my front lights looking better cause they have faded

You can get kits to do it in halfords etc.

Do a search for headlights and stuff will pop up

Do them yourself with wet & dry etc. No need to spend money on a kit (imo)

What sort off grade will i need and step by step?

I have used a 3m headlight resoration kit i bought from amazon. Came up a treat.

I've heard that toothpaste works. Grab 2 tubes from Tesco, the value stuff will do, and smother them on your lights....wait 15 mins the wash it off....worth a try for what...50p?

PMSL tooth paste I have heard it all now :headno:

Toothpaste is a mild abrasive, just like car polish...

However, just like polish, you can't just slap a thick load on and leave it there lol.


Anyway that's all redundant, 1500 grit wet & dry produces great results on bad headlights relatively fast, relatively easily and for about 50p. Follow it up with some sort of polish and sealant (ask in Car Detailing) and you've got yourself a massive improvement for hardly any money and an hour or two of your time.

I know, i never used a kit when i done mine and i wont be using one next time.

But from the impression i got from the OP it would be easier to just tell him about the kit

There's a couple of guys round this way that charge circa £20 to do it for you. . Im sure you'll find someone your way.

Fair enough, to be honest I'm not very good at hands on stuff but I did them fine. So if I can do it etc
