Hi there everyone,
The right headlight on my car is pretty much brand new with only 2000 miles on it. It has got no scratches, swirls, pits or anything on it except a few spots (grain size) of crystallized bug residues. I have tried several bugs removing spray, WD40, magic eraser, dryer sheets etc, the bug residues stayed on no matter how hard I tried. Any help?
I tried searching the forum for information but couldn't get anything useful. Should I try wet sanding? It is a fairly new headlight after all and wet sanding should be the last resort...
Let's say I have to wet sand it, which grit would do the least damage to the lens while being able to remove the bugs residues? And with ultimate compound, M205, a DA(PC) and a 4" polishing pad, any hope removing the sanding marks? Or should I go directly with the UC and 4" polishing pad to "buff" off the bug residues?
Please guys, any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you all.
