headlights
headlights
my lights have a continuous haze over them and whenever they have water on them it goes away, but comes back when its dry.....is there a way to clean them or do i need to replace the seal?
Meguir's plastic polish...it's a two part process...
one bottle is the cleaner that scrubs out all the dirt and smoothes out any pitting or scratches.
the second is a polish/wax that seals the pastic and makes it shine.
will only last about 6-9 months of regular driving, but much better than having the milky haze over the outside.
the only other alternitive (besides new headlights) is to us a DA/Orbital buffer and a hard core cutting compound to polish off the UV coating on the outside of the headlights (the actual part that is that milky film) until the UV coating is gone. but then the plastic is exposed to the elements and may yellow over time...
so best bet is the Meguir's two part stuff by hand on a regular basis.

a.k.a. GED hopeful!
i know they make it, cus i have some...
used to have to use it on my old 94 integra...
it wasn't in any fancy bottles, just plain white bottles, one with blue lettering and one with green...prolly commercial type stuff. i honestly don't remember where i bought/got it but i've had it for years...works great to brighten up old tail light.
actually, i need to remember to break it out and do my N600 tails and turn signals...they're a little milky/hazy.
