Pulling headlights out of the car is the easiest way to remove oxidation from them......but pulling them out is harder on some cars than others. But once they're out, like from this 4th gen Camaro, it's time to get to work!

A little DA sanding to get started...

....refine the sanding marks with a finer grit.....

....work a bit of compound to remove the sanding marks.....

....and let there be light!!!

Buying a used car often means buying someone else's paint care mistakes. Such is the case on the trunk of this BMW Z4. Ouch!

A little clay, in a little area, yields big contamination removal.

A little DA Microfiber polishing and things are looking much, much better!

You just have to love how great red paint looks when it's done up right.... and this just looks dripping wet!!
