Headlights yellow. Advice?
 

As per the title, my headlights were yellow, so I went and got a headlight restoration kit. Cleaned it up according to instructions. Looks good right? Sweet

2 weeks yellow... Oh... welcome back yellow haze....

I want to say it was meguir's but i cant be too sure as I did it a little while ago. Anyways. Now I'm looking for some professional advice as to how to make them mofos SHINE. For a long time....

I used this one a few months ago and still good
I went over the headlights with sandpaper a few times before I got it all good and clean
After polish I did a few applications of the protection

Actually, I'm pretty sure it was some variation of this that came with a rag, but not a sponge...

Polish/buff them again then spray with clear coat. If you had an über-awesome friend like mine who custom-installs clear bra, have a panel cut and fitted.

This one comes with the coating for after you are done so it protects the lens

Never put Microfiber Towels on the floor :P

As others have mentioned, the sealer is the critical part. Make sure you follow directions exactly.

Fixed.
Seriously, though... I would only use those for glass, and door jambs and the like. They are doing more harm to your paint then good.

Like POS VETT mentioned above. I will wet sand with 1000 grit, and then 1500 grit, wash and dry, and spray with an aerosol clear coat. they look like new when done.

Please post a quality micro fiber towel because I use those too:icon14:

Alright, I'll try that tomorrow

The Eagle Edgeless towels from The Rag Company are like buffing your car with a baby bunny. They are as soft, or softer than the 12 dollar Wolfgang towel that came free with my Wolfgang Fuzion wax.

:iagree: I also use the eagle edgeless. A simple rule to follow....If you drag it across your open palm, and it tries to stick, keep it away from your paint.
I'm positive the Junkman has a video on microfiber out there. Give it a look.

A simple, inexpensive and effective solution for headlight restoration is to apply toothpaste in small circular motions, allow a haze to form and simply buff it out. Once it is restored, apply a high quality wax to the headlight and buff out. You will be amazed.
