HEADLIGHT RESTORATION

THE HEADLIGHT LENS ON MARY'S HONDA HAD BECOME YELLOWED AND FOGGED, YOU COULDN'T EVEN SEE THE THE BULB THROUGH THE LENS. WE BOUGHT THE HEADLIGHT LENS RESTORATION SYSTEM, BY 3M, AT AUTO ZONE FOR $20.

THE SYSTEM STARTS OUT BY TAPING AROUND THE HEADLIGHT LENS TO PROTECT THE PAINT. NEXT YOU USE COURSE SAND PAPER DISKS THAT ARE ATTACHED TO YOUR ELECTRIC DRILL BY A SECURE VELCRO SYSTEM. THE DISK TO ATTACH TO YOUR DRILL IS PROVIDED IN THE KIT.

AFTER THIS FIRST SANDING THE LENS LOOK LIKE FROSTED GLASS, AND I'M THINKING $200 FOR NEW HEADLIGHT LENS FROM HONDA WILL BE ON THE "TO DO LIST" FOR TOMORROW.

NEXT IS A FINE SANDPAPER SANDING, FOLLOWED BY THE NEXT STEP OF EVEN FINER SANDING WITH WATER SPRAYED ON. AT THIS POINT THE LENS BECOMES CLEAR AGAIN.THE LAST STEP IS A POLISH APPLIED WITH THE DRILL DISK AS WELL.

THE WHOLE PROCESS TOOK US ABOUT AN HOUR AND HALF SITTING COMFORTABLY ON THE PATIO IN OUR "SUNNY & 80" WEATHER. THE 3M HEADLIGHT RESTORATION KIT GETS A 5 STAR RATING FROM US.
