    I like it..but wish it didn't try out as fast.. I typically do 2 go rounds with mckee37 headlight AIO...so i just switched to S0 and S3 XXl ..either or works on lights that don't need resurfaced

    either method takes me about 5 mins to compound/drill and seal with UV coating or ceramic coating

    600/1500/polish works great..but doesn't cut that mustard when lights are crazed

    Re: Headlight Restoration Side Job Advice?

    I use a spritz of pad conditioner from McKees and don't have a problem of it drying out. I can usually do 4 sometimes 5 section passes per headlight without dry up.
