Aging headlights can become faded and cloudy, resulting in poor lighting and dangerous driving situations at night. Need to restore your headlights? Don’t worry - you’ve got this.
Apply masking tape to the area around the headlight to protect the painted or chrome surfaces surrounding it.

Wet sand the headlight
Do so with a coarser sanding disc by hand in a slow and steady back and forth motion.
STEP 4
Wipe the lens
Wipe off the lens with a dry cloth to make sure any yellowing and defects have been removed. The lens should have a white, evenly sanded surface as if it were frosted.
STEP 5
Sand again with a finer grit disc in an up and down motion
STEP 6
Buff the headlight
With a drill attachment, buff the headlight using a liquid compound designed for plastic surfaces.
