Headlight restoration in North East Ohio (Christmas Help Needed)

[Don M]

I few years ago, there was someone on here in NE Ohio that did headlight restoration. I PM'ed them a few times, but have since lost their user info.

My brother has a 2006 Chevrolet Silverado and has mentioned to me that his headlights are getting dim from the plastic lenses getting murky. He knows I'm a detailer and though maybe I could do it for him.

While I know the steps you are supposed to take and the mechanics of the process, I've never done it myself and don't want to screw up his lights. So I would rather just pay someone else to do it.

He LOVES giving for Christmas, but HATES IT when anyone gets him anything, so he NEVER says that he "likes" anything, so usually he'll get a few 'gag' gifts from me and his other brother - just so WE feel better and got him SOMETHING for Christmas.

So him telling me (in a very round about way, by mentioning his lights were sub-par, without saying he would like to have them "fixed") that THIS would be the PERFECT Christmas present to him.

GETTING his truck to have the work done is the easy part - he has absolutely no issues loaning it to me for several hours / or even a day if I need a truck for something.

Here's where I need the help, in FINDING either the Forum Member I spoke with before (if they still do headlights) or someone else in the area who can/will do it so I can give him an appreciated Christmas present.

ANY help or leads would be greatly appreciated!!

Don,
I'm confident that you could do this yourself. The plastic is SUPER thick (jist keep the polisher moving).

[TTQ B4U]

You can do it Don. I'll message you from Facebook or you're welcome to call my cell. I may be up in the area soon and would be happy to help too. I'll keep you posted.

Honestly, one of the best "kits" is the CERAKOTE Ceramic Headlight Restoration Kit. You can get them at Wally World even for about $16. The wipe on sealant works really well.

What they said. You can do it!

You won't screw them up, Don.

If you can polish paint, headlights will be easier than that girl in HS who hung out in the student parking lot all day.

Or was that just my HS??


Either way, you can DO it!!

Sure it was an accident. It's ok to hit Dislike occasionally. It's very exhilarating

I disagree.

I think the "dislike" is the cowardly way out.

If you disagree with a post, it should be quoted and accompanied with a counterpoint.

No counterpoint. Just felt like it.
