    Re: Headlight restoration 50/50.

    I've been reading this thread seems good any updates on how it's holding up? I ordered the 3000 grit sheet from here but seems like I wont need it but good to keep on hand I guess.

    Re: Headlight restoration 50/50.

    After doing this what are your thoughts on putting clear bra over the lights? i know some would be more difficult but has added protection... here in Colorado we have a ton of rocks!

    Only thing I'm curious is me doing this plus this way with the clear bra with a projector headlight is anything funny going to show up?

    My car sits outside year round and when my new headlights from Japan come in I'm going to try this way of clearing them with the old set coming off.

    The stuff I get comes in 30oz bottles at Home Depot or Walmart for like 8 bucks......does 30oz last you 3 years or don't they carry the 30oz bottle where you are?
