headlight restoration done right....

I've been hearing allot of people restore their headlights and find out they quickly haze up again and have to be redone. A good friend of mine does headlight restoration, he told me if you don't seal them after wet sanding than you will have your haze back in no time because your taking the protective coating off the lens, also keep in mind when wet sanding your taking a layer of plastic off and if you keep doing this over and over again you thin out the plastic.

If anyone wants it done right and to last or maybe just wants them sealed after doing them yourself he is offering his services along with many other services you may need done to your ride.

* please check with him if you want to do the sanding/polishing yourself and have him seal them I'm not 100% sure if he's willing to do this.*

Oh forgot to mention he's from Hamilton
