Before I invest in some new headlights I was wondering if anyone knows how to clean headlights that look like this. It seems to only be on the outside of the light.

 

Videos all over youtube about how to do this job. Take your pick.

good luck

 

I have cleaned a fed sets with good results

 

Ya I have checked and the only thing they show how to do is if the headlights are yellow. These really are not yellow and I cant really describe whats wrong with them

 

How did you do yours? I tried sanding it down a little but was worried it would leave the headlight looking worse.

 

Looks like chemical hazing from solvents, but could be clouding from water getting inside.

You might try a trial cleaning w/ a buffer and any good automotive polish to see if you can buff the hazing out. All the repairs are based on removing a surface layer of oxidized lens.

good luck

 

1500 grit then polishing compound

works great

 

Ya im pretty sure its on the outside. It feels really rough compared to the other one. Thanks

 

Im going to try that. Think I used 2500 last time I tried it but just did a small area. Thank you

 

EXACTLY WHAT I DID!! Try this first, and if not good enough yet, try a little(VERY LITTLE) brake fluid on a rag, then buff it, still not good enough go to walfart or whorber freight to get the polishing kit for headlights.
