Headlight lens repair.

I got a Sylvania Headlight Restoration Kit. I got this one because it has a lifetime warranty (they send a new kit if you need one). Here's the result.

To be honest, it wasn't bad because I did it before with a kit from Harbor Harbor Freight. It was starting to cloud a little, but this looks better than when I first used the HF kit.

Project Farm just did a comparison on these:


The two top winners were 3M and Sylvania.

Wow, this is great. I did my lights with a Walmart kit (forget the name) & it came out "OK", but not as good as yours.

Note that I used some more 2000 grit than the kit came with, because why not?
