minivolks Posted July 31, 2016 Posted July 31, 2016 Hi all, Did the headlights on the 2000 s10. I sanded with wet sand paper till i got to 1400. lights had that white foggy look to them. I used blue magic head light lens sealer. That cleared them up some but not perfect. Should I use less grit paper? Will that help the haze? Say, 2000 and up? I've seen people use clear spay paint. Any one try that??
montyss Posted July 31, 2016 Posted July 31, 2016 I'd start with P600 wet then P800 going to P1200 .... P2000 and last P3000 then buffing them with a foam pad and 3M # 06085 rubbing compound works better than any kit you can buy on the 1st quick pass with the buffer you will be amazed at the lens , the 3M 6085 compound is real smooth with no real grit in it but it polishes great Never used clear paint on any yet but if there is any discoloration still there after sanding the clear won't help to make it look any better
GasHog369 Posted August 1, 2016 Posted August 1, 2016 Clear paint / seaker will not make your headlights clear. They will only help preserve the yellow it is currently. Your yellow problem couple also be on the inside if its more of a burn..
minivolks Posted August 2, 2016 Author Posted August 2, 2016 redid the headlights today. used 2000 wet sand then the polish. Protected with blue magic. Have to say they look great. 2000 paper really did the trick.
