Headlight Lens Restoration: Bug Spray Trick Vs. DP’s AIO Vs. Meg’s Plastx

[dogfish246]

Just had a chance to watch your follow-up permanent solution video, ChrisFix. Again, you do a very good job putting those video's together .

Nice collection of links and how-to video's over on Reddit (/r/cars) as well. Did your best friend with the FR-S make it to SEMA this year?

If i could make a suggestion it would be stress the need in the video for DIY'ers to spray the clear coat with the vehicle parked inside a garage or if outdoors during an extremely still day. Seems like common sense but... even with plastic covering the area immediately around the headlight, overspray can travel with the right gust of wind. I'd hate to be the person who ends up with Gloss Clear all over their windshield.

Thanks!!!

Guys, please don't forget him saying this is geared toward light oxidation and "consumers" (your DIYers, weekend warriors, college kids trying earn booze money, etc,). The finish doesn't look completely smooth and like allenk4 said, it may have a slight orange peel effect. Probably not the best thing for some high-end vehicle or for a customer that is meticulous about his car's finish.

What would be a better solution for headlight restoration? as you mention, something that will be great for high-end vehicles and meticulous customers.
