buffed the haze from my headlights


got rid of the haze that has been annoying me. 3m kit did the trick! These had become fairly milky, four or five years since I cleaned them last.

They look fantastic

Does the kit simply involve sandpaper and abrasive compound ?

Yes, It has 500 & 800 grit sandpaper, and a 3500 grit pad, then a foam pad and polish to finish.

I've gone 800, 1000, 1500, 2000 then buff

The 3500 grit pad would be the icing

Mine were yellow and foggy too when i bought mine. I used 2000 sandpaper with some windex spray to keep it from scratching and when it was clean enough, used Nu Polish to get some shine out of it. Nu Polish can be used on the car as a wax...just like wax compound but not as much scrubbing as rubbing compound.

yea it's great. you can use under sun or shade. But be careful when applying it near the edges and corners where you won't be able to get your towel to wipe cuz it will dry and show as white powder just sitting there but easily cleanable even when dried for days...just a single swipe. It leaves the car slippery...once I used it and hours later I saw a fly trying to sit on side fenders....that thing kept slipping down LOL

for quick wax, i just use Lucas spray wax.

My headlights aren't clean as new ones but that polish does the work...or to get even more shine, apply oil lol i used Baby Oil...it looked clean af lol but the oil catches dirt...but the shine is worth it with the oil lol

Nice clean ride E350fan.
A cheap and easy upgrade that makes a huge difference, especially on white vehicles, is clear side markers with chrome amber bulbs.
Gets rid of the unsightly orange accent.

Do it. Here's a couple of pics of my E63 with them, with the lights off and on.
