I got some 06 HL's installed finally that I bought from another member but there are some slight imperfections that from what I gather can only be solved by wet sanding. I have never done this before and dont really want to risk Fing them up more.

Anyone local wanna give me a hand?

or point me to a really well written DIY and maybe ill give it a shot

thanks

 

not sure if wet sanding is a good idea on plastic cuz i heard there is a protective coating that's on the headlight. if you sand that away your headlight lens won't be able to withstand the sun and rain and eventually it'll haze up really bad.

have you tried to get some aggressive plastic polish? and i think you should probably use a rotary buffer.

 

I learned the hard way...Dont do it...It wont stand the wet sanding...I had fogged headlight and i tried it and now it doesnt look that good....It helped, but not the way you wish

 

are you talking about doing the lens??

 

go to pepboys, they have a kit for $10. all you need is a drill. no sanding needed.

 

Yea i was talking about the lens.

sounds like this is going to be a no-go then, ill check out the pepboys kit you mentioned SD.

Thanks for the pointers guys

 

yeah get the buffing kit

 

i can help you restore your headlights...let me know im in san ramon

i can post some pics of some headlight restorations up tomorrow or something
