Good job
Looks really good, I never thought of waxing the headlights I always use what is in the kit.
What pads did you use. It looks like the ole porter cable DA. Maybe 3 in pads. Do you know where you can get more of those sanding discs. I have worn mine out.

Yeah I like to apply wax to the headlights to offer longer protection, we'll as much as possible and depending on how the owner takes care of them from now on.
Turn on the Closed Caption on YouTube. It describes everything I used and steps.
I believe Detailing in Irvine sells the sanding discs. I bought mine from AutoGeekComment

Re: Good job
Waxing headlights, preferably a sealant like ultimate wax is a good idea after you restored your headlights. For example, when I use the kit on my personal cars or my parents car I follow up with ultimate wax and in between washes I will add some ultimate quik wax. Don't want them to haze up. When it is time to polish again I will hit the headlights with it as well if it is needed and protect them once again. If you want permanent protection then opt-lens is what you want.Originally posted by Skoob View PostLooks really good, I never thought of waxing the headlights I always use what is in the kit.

I also use the porter cable with 4" pads to compond or polish headlights.
If you are looking to purchase individual sanding discs you can get them here:
That's good practice. Just be sure to follow up with a wax/sealant like ultimate wax to help them from hazing up.Originally posted by Bruce Devilbiss View PostComment
