Cobra headlight restoration

My friend was going to purchase new headlamps....but not anymore thanks to Wolfgang

I decided to try one of our 4" Wool pads with the cleaner and it seemed to work better than the foam cutting pads, so I highly recommend trying these out. I'll post more feedback as I get more experience in comparing them.

Anyways, I cleaned w/DP 4-in-1, polished with Wolfgang Plastik Lens Cleaner and a wool pad, followed with Plastik Lens Glaze and a finishing pad, then applied the Plastik Surface Sealant by hand.

















Wolfgang Plastik Lens Cleaning System is a three-part system for clean, clear headlight lenses!

Re: Cobra headlight restoration

Great job, Matt! I've noticed that headlights will turn dull if not periodically polished (maybe something simple like PlastX), and sealed with a sealant. Love Wolfgang plastic sealant! I use it on taillights too!

Re: Cobra headlight restoration

Nice job, I have not tried out those wool pads yet, think I might grab a couple.
