    Headlight Restoration - Mothers

    I just did a headlight restoration using Mothers PowerBall 4 Lights kit. I give it a B+. Easy to use and results were pretty good. The below pics are from an 07 Toyota Corolla who's lights were moderately oxidized.

    Looks good. Did you use all the sandpiper grits as well?

    I did not have to wetsand these. I also did my '03 Dodge Ram which was severely oxidized and I did have to use the sandpaper. My Ram didnt come out as good. I'm going to give it a second round and see how it does

    Good trick an autobody guy taught me to restore headlights as well is Flitz Metal Polish on a wool pad followed with a finishing polish. Really comes out great
