This is hard work! I put my car polisher over my 2003 Vauxhall Astra headlights using light pressure and small amounts of T-Cut. 5 -10 minutes for each. Three years between polishes, second time, only light polish needed. Job Done!
Been there, doesn't last at all without UV coating. For mild cases, suggest single step easy and quick product and do it as frequently as necessary. Not perfect, but results are surprisingly good.
I like this ! I will put clear coat on after I am finished !
Nice job, I've tried them all lol
This is a good way to have clear headlights for about a month. They will just oxidize again without a sealer on top.
This was a lot more work and cost than needed. Plus as others have said, they will fog right back over... **UNLESS** you use something like Meguiar's Headlight Coating. I've used it, it works pretty good and looks great. It does need to be reapplied about once a year to keep them perfectly clear. But for reapplication its just a simple cleaning using something like glass window cleaner _(or whatever the bottle recommends)_ , then respray the coating. It comes in a spray can.
I've been using Meguiar's marine products for decades and have always had great results. Agree also this has got to be the most laborious, time consuming and expensive way I've ever heard for cleaning headlights. I use a metal polish called 'Peek' and a couple good rags and get excellent results in an ACTUAL five minutes.
I blame the auto industry for puttin us thru this crap. Nothing will beat the old school GLASS headlites. Unfortuntly this plastic crap is here to stay. Even if hou buy NEW lights, it's only a matter of time before they cloud up too and you're looking at three - four bills to replace those.
Exactly what I tell my customers they can do it themselves or I charge 35$ dollars to do it for them
Wouldn't a coat of car polish protect it
@@davewebster1627 nah, but the right kind of rubbing compound might help you clean it. the Meguiar's this guy is talking about is really good stuff .we are working on a video to put on my channel showing the step by step way the pro's do it it's really a simple prosses and you will be proud of the end results
Big difference... After spending that much time, might as well put some clear coat on it to give it protection. Maybe not on this headlight that is pretty much trash, but this way can buy you time till you can save some $$$ and buy a set of new headlights. Great job! Thanks.
I never knew spending the whole afternoon cleaning one headlight could be so much fun. Good thing it's a long weekend. Thanks.
That's a 5 minute weekend.

@@rudiwendt5278 seems like a really long time to clean one.
infact
I did something like this to the left headlight that was a little foggier than the other right one. Turns out I had to do the right one as well because it made the left one look better.
Good solid job I did our old Mk6 fiesta. Looks so much better.
I found Autosol Metal Polish does the job very well. Then I finish it off with a normal car wax polish!
50分が早送りすることで5分になるトリックですね
With all that work and all those graduating grits of sandpaper...I would certainly expect it to turn out well. I was wondering it you were going to spray something on it to keep it from fading again.
Di butuhkan proses untuk mengkilapkannya... terimakasih telah berbagi informasi ini
Ive heard after all that work, they fog up a year later anyway. But after your done with all this, your supposed to use some sorta clear wrap to keep the suns ultraviolet rays and grease and grime from affecting/fogging them again
Faster, cheaper, easier and less messy to use T-Cut and a paper towel, which also gives a better finish. Unless you apply a UV protective coating afterwards this will need doing every year (maybe more regularly depending upon how much sun you get).
What is T-Cut?
colour cut @@davidratcliffe1
@@davidratcliffe1 Fine cutting polish, similar to Brasso which is used for tarnished brass and copper but does the job !

When I was in school, I watched a friend make a transparent ring by cutting thick acrylic, and when I wiped it with toothpaste, I finished a transparent and shiny ring, and it was really pretty. I lost. I recommend it.
What's "amazing" is that anyone thinks this is only "5 minutes" of work. What's also amazing is that anyone thinks this is amazing.
You can do this in 5 minutes too! You just have to work as fast as this sped up video.
And such a bad result, just a waste of time
It’s not just sped up, it’s been cut and spliced multiple times…lol. Plus it begins with the headlight already out of the car.
45 minuts
This headlight is cracked in the corner, so not sure what is the point.
*Nickel ! Top ! 👍😁* *+1abo*
cheap rubbing compound and a good waxing works fast/easy and last a while. My lamps are 22 years old and still look good.
Este tio ya es un monstruo,solo con haber arrancado el faro de su sitio,espero que cuando lo limpie sepa volver a colocarlo.
WOW!! This video is so educational. Thank you. Definitely will be doing quite a few of these ideas. 🙂
Couldn't tell what some of the products are on my phone. Where does one get the super fine sandpapers? I've never seen them in stores. Can they be used with a drill like one of the products was? What about a coating? I may just buy a Sylvania kit.
Wow- and you had a power tool, all this time? As other's mentioned,without a UV clear-coating... depending on sunlight exposure, 6-8 months before needing another light polishing.
처음엔 무슨 큰 진주조개인줄 알았습니다😆 라이트 빛이 흐린 이유가 바깥쪽 표면이 기스가 심해서이군요~ 사포질을 해주면 다시 투명도를 되돌릴수 있다니 정말 대단한 꿀팁입니다~👍👍
삶이 순조롭게 진행되든 나쁘게 진행되든, 어느 쪽이든 그리스도 없이 죄 가운데 사는 삶은 죽음 이후에 영원한 고통으로 이어질 것입니다. 짐을 맡기고 주님이시며 구원자이신 예수님을 믿고 태어나세요 다시 성령으로(요 3:3) 구원받고 하나님 나라의 일부가 되는 것입니다! 십자가를 지고 네가 신실하면 너를 붙드시고 끝까지 네 곁에 계실 하나님을 네 마음을 다하여 따르라 참을성 있는. 하나님은 당신을 구원과 예수님을 통한 그분의 영원한 왕국으로 부르시고 무엇보다도 그분과의 개인적인 관계로 부르십니다. 주를 믿는 사람은 누구나 용서를 받을 것이라는 예언자들의 약속도 너희에게 유효하다. 죄와 영생의 소망. 이것은 좋은 소식입니다! 우리도 전에는 어리석고 패역하고 방황하며 여러 가지 정욕과 풍만함, 악의와 질투 속에 살며 서로 미워하고 미워합니다. 4 하지만 언제 우리 구주 하나님의 선하심과 사람에 대한 그의 사랑이 나타나셨으나 5 그가 우리를 구원하지 아니하시고 우리가 행한 의로운 행위로 말미암았고 오직 그의 긍휼하심을 좇아 중생의 목욕과 성령의 새롭게 하심이라 6 그가 풍성히 우리 구주 예수 그리스도로 말미암아 우리에게 부어 주셨으니 7. 은혜로 말미암아 우리가 가진 소망을 따라 영생의 상속자가 되었으니
In 2 months it will be like this again!
Today, anyone who truly recognizes himself as a sinner and under God's condemnation, and comes to Jesus with all his heart for salvation, trusting fully in Christ, will receive forgiveness of his sins and be born again as a son. of God. This person will have the privilege of follow Jesus as Lord of his life. This person will know the loving care of Jesus Christ, the Good Shepherd. Dear reader, Christ has opened the door for you to come to God. He has paid the penalty for sin. He is the Paschal Lamb. Today, He commands you: Repent, and believe in the Gospel. In other words, acknowledge your sin before God, acknowledge your status as a man or woman separate from God, and stop trusting yourself or anything else. Trust completely in Jesus Christ for your salvation. Cling to Christ as Savior and as Lord. Come to Him, the Good Shepherd. God commands you to repent and believe. Don't worry about how things might turn out. Jesus Christ is the Good Shepherd. Hold on to Him, and He will take care of you. His care for those who truly come to Him is perfect, tender, and total care. Come to the Good Shepherd of souls! Come to Jesus Christ.
Especially after he sanded off all the remaining UV coating.
That's why you seal it, afterwards. He left that part out but this is still the process that should be done, prior to clear coating or whatever other sealer you use.
What is the step scrubing with the aluminum sheet for? I don't think you need that step lol
That was WAY more work than it needed to be
Say the people who spend hours with 2000 grit and wonder why it still looks like sh...t
Say the people who have detailed cars for a living and actually knock out headlights in 5 minutes real time
You only needed two grits of sandpaper first not too course second very fine grit, then go to plastic polish. That's how lenses are done.
@@Gutsyredcoat Hope the people who have detailed cars for living to a lot better job than this guy did. I understand why it's only 5 minutes, it looks like it.
I spent $75 and got new ones made in china. Gotta love that exchange rate. Took 15 minutes to replace them, that's cheap man-hours for what my time is worth. 10 years later they still look new, garage kept. I think the material they used in china was better than what the oem stuff was 10 years prior to that. Technology in material moved forward as well I am sure.
I deep cleaned my headlights then applied some automotive clear coat to the lens. After three months they are crystal clear and still look great
I agree. Adding a layer of UV-protectant clear coat at the end-and not polish-is essential to maintaining the clear appearance.
Awesome!! Where are you so you can do mine 😂
It's an improvement from what it looked like before but I don't think it's quite finished. I could have had that headlight crystal clear like it was new in less time.
if you are a professional detailing technician you know this trick for long time, Best.
by the time you bought all that sandpaper you almost be more then half way to a new one lol but awesome video ty
It's amazing if you have found an expert, hopefully it will be useful for many people
Was this a video on how to restore headlights or how not to restore headlights ? What was the deal with the shaved soap in the aluminum foil?
click bait.
Já passei pastas de dente no farol da minha velha Ferrari sucata flamerda
Now it's like a new !
Good job
The left side clouded over so I started working on it, and the more I worked on it, the more clouded it got. The right side still looks good and I haven't done anything to it.
Il y en a certainement pour plus de 5 minutes à faire tout ça. J'ai compté 8 ou 9 opérations. A raison de 10 minutes en moyenne par opération, ça prend donc au total près d'une heure et demie.
All steps great, except, replace the compound and wax with clear coat and you are good for a couple of years:)
Если поставить скорость воспроизведения х2, то можно и не за 5 минут, а за 2 с небольшим))).
LOOKS GOOD FROM 2 MILES AWAY.
Why not just buy the 3M Headlight restoration kit or the Sylvania headlight restoration kit? About $15 or $22 respectively. The odd assortment of paper, and products might cost same.
Couldn't put it better myself!! As voted by consumers 3M number one!!!
To stop or slow down the oxidation clear coat rattle can it. Haven't had to redo mine in 3 years after I sanded with 600, 1000, 2000.
I enjoy your videos, but your explanations are missing the information is very skimpy! All those items you used need some detail to let your viewers know. A few captions would have helped greatly. Thank you and best wishes
Needs clear coat seal otherwise it will go hazy again very fast! Also, the clear vote will make it even more clear
Wrong.... Just get a cheap headlight restore kit. Do exactly as instructions say. After complete. Wait 24hrs. Then hit your headlights with headlight COATING. DO NOT USE CLEAR COAT PAINT. That is the dumbest method out there. Alllllll clear coats will slowly yellow up within the year time. Headlight coating seals it for one to 3 years. Sometimes longer, if you keep your ride out of the sun. Even better if you have a garage. Remember folks, coating and painting are two entirely different nature's... ✌️
LOL Amazing method with this trick .
This is one of the longest methods I have ever seen to restore a headlights. I got good results with mothers, aluminum and wheel polish not perfect but I’ve been watching this video and I don’t see too much progress going on there.
Wet sand quickly to get rid of uv damaged layer. Then hit it with a quality clear coat so it has the UV protection and clear appearance. No need for all those steps only to leave unprotected plastic surface.
BINGO!
The worst Headlight restore I've ever seen lmao
Odlično..a tek S-10..još bolje,a brže..
No meu usei direito lixa 2500 com água. Deixei secar bem e dei uma poeirinha de verniz incolor brilhante e ficou 90% bom.
Nice
It's not just the mild soap as like others have said it don't last there is proper stuff now to repair and you have to repeat it every year .
What happened to the reflector between 4:18 and 4:19?
Which car ist the headlight from ?
Wah kreative sekali cara buat nya,,hasil bagus
Sanding it will removed the coating that protect the plastic from getting brittle by the sun. So it will only lasts for few months.
It's not true. I've done it by a professional into my Toyota's wife and they are crystal clear past more than 5y. What I can say maybe the original coating was the cause !
@@NoTengoIlusiones That's because the "pros" put a protective coating on them. In this video he did not, therefore it would give it a few months...
Faltou o verniz .senão com o tempo volta a ficar amarelo
このあとコーティングしないと半年もたたないうちに黄ばみ始める
Honda metal polish works well also
5 minut?magia kina
To możesz zrobić 3x szybciej używając kwasu zawartego w domestosie i gąbki do mycia puźniej lekka poletka płukanie i tyle

easiest 49 step process i've seen so far.
I just buff it with 320 and throw clear coat. You can buy spray can clear coats Last about a year
Yeah.. I’ll stick to the 2 minute buff with polishing compound for paint.. I also use ceramic coat on my wife’s plastic headlights. Then once every year I do a quick buff..
what liquid u are using with soap at the earlier video? just water or vinegar?
No need to use soap at all
You need to spray the end results with laquer
Судя по всему в пять минут не уложился👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks bro...I tried this and after that I had to buy a new one....might have done something wrong.
Once your headlights are oxydized you can not keep them shiny ever again you have to keep doing it several times a year sealent will only stay on for so long believe me we run a detailing shop and do them many of times 4:36 4:36
Turtle wax polishing compound, then finish with rustoleum clear coat.
Went to junkyard found some good lookin' ones, bought 'em and put 'em in.
This isn't a trick. It's a lot of work
Toothpaste work quite well.
1-2h pracy na sztukę , mozolne tarcie papierami różnej gradacji , polewanie wodą, na koniec jeszcze pasta polerska do reflektorów i tak! jest efekt! w 5 min to se można kupę zrobić..
Ha ha. Dobrze powiedziane.
Spending all afternoon cleaning headlights? I think my headlights are brighter than my future!
all I did was spray WD-40 let sit a few minutes then wiped off nice and clear
With this method I'm not sure if 10x more = 50 minutes will be enough...
Complicated just clean them sometimes but most people it's inside the lights casing not outside.
5 min at 45X Speed Video ?????????? anyway that is good but after ? maybe 1 month you need to remake this if you not put a protect on this ,,,,,,,,,,,,
Amazing!
Eu passei direto lixa 2.500 c água. Depois de bem seco, uma poeirinha fina e pouca de verniz incolor brilhante. Ficou 90%
Me compre un faro nuevo y ahorre un montón de dinero en lijas.......también mi manguito rotador esta agradecido.
I could do it in 5 mins, but the problem is I can't do it fast forward.
Is there a way to fast forward reality, the sanding part takes a lot longer than 5 minutes.
за какие 5 мин ? и не качественно
try WD 40 spray headlamp and leave for a couple of days and then repeat it.
Aspak praktike e papelqyshme. Nuk kuptohet se cili solucion apo veprim ndikoj ne pastrimin.
Buy a tin of clearcoat . One light coat and one heavy coat . Done.
Неделя работы всего. Надо делать.
Я понимаю для контента ! )) мыть мылом не нужно во первых! Во вторых не как не 320 в начале а минимум 400 потом 600 потом 800 потом 1500 потом 2500 потом 3000 и только потом полироль номер 1 с образивом и только потом финишка ! Но это на время ! А если правильно то после смой мелкой шкурки а лучше 3500 обезжирив покрыть лаком !
Fiecare face cum vrea dar nu este procedură corectă
Tanto trabalho para ficarem na mesma passados 2/3 meses... em meia hora, se fosse eu - lixa 320, 400, 500 e verniz 2k à pistola. Done :), 3/4 anos sem problemas.
Thanks. But iam going to buy a new one if nessesery
Or u can just put rubbing compond on the light and hit it with a wool pad on a circle buffer and and a couple coats of clear bam done.... ur welcom
What materials were used?
enuff to just buy a new one, then maybe put some wax on it
Ik denk dat je gewoon met een willekeurige afwasmiddel kunt starten om te schoonmaken. Stap met aluminiumfolie ..? Waar is dat goed voor? Aan het eind resultaat te zien, zijn er aardig wat krassen op koplamp ontstaan. Ik weet niet zeker of dit wel een goede manier was om schoon te krijgen..
I thought he was going to use that peeler until I saw the soap
Great job ....but most headlight cleaners like turtle wax uses the same steps. and if you have halogen burn , that on the inside, time for new.
gdzie można kupić taką szybką rączkę ??????????????????????????????????????????
