Re: Headlight restoration 50/50.
Hi !

Re: Headlight restoration 50/50.
The results speak for themselves I am about to start on my 2003 Honda Accord. Not looking forward to working the area around the raised bump area esp if I have to do a lot of sanding by hand. I agree with your thoughts though. Having a roughed up area (very slight in this case) does give the material something to grab onto. As a comparison, when you assemble a golf club you have to roughen up the shaft (carbon or steel) or the epoxy wont hold and the club will fly apart.

I'm guessing that the urethane filled the micro scratches and leveled them...making them invisible.
