  • The bottom line here is that both Scotty and Chris try really hard to help viewers with their cars, to the best of their knowledge anyway. It seems like Chis saw success with his method then immediately posted his video, as if he was under the impression that it was permanent. Chris isn’t a bad guy for posting something he believed true at the time and Scotty isn’t a bad guy for making sure we know the truth. They’re both trying their best to help us.

  • Used the Meguiar’s Restoration kit yesterday on my 2006 Corolla with very hazy lenses and though I had to use a little extra elbow grease (the compound on a drill mounted pad), combined with three coats of the UV clear coat spray, has transformed the lenses into good as new. Follow directions, tape off the area around the lens for overspray and it is super easy! Thanks for the tip!

    • Chris is method works too, just make sure to do it the right way. Scotty presented an preventive method as a best solution. Both methods require timely maintenance nonetheless. However, I wonder why my vehicles have never had faded headlights. I owned an BMW 118i 2006 and currently own an Toyota Auris Hybrid 2013. Both always had crystal clear headlights. I simply wash my car regularly, about once a month. If it gets dirty unexpectedly, I wash the dirty spot away by hand.

  • The best fix I've ever found to get rid of yellowing is simply bug spray, like Deep Woods Off--it's a miracle. Also, a quick question - Scotty, I love your videos!!! You're the best on KZhead. Per your suggestion, I picked up a used 2013 Toyota Camry in excellent condition. It has high miles (190K) but it will work perfect for my soon-to-be-driving son and daughter. I noticed in eco mode there's a very subtle shutter at 4k rpms. I'm worried that the torque converter is the suspect even though it's not a problem yet. Can I just drive in sport mode and avoid the "flex lockup" of the torque converter and avoid any damage?

  • I'm retired but was in the collision repair/refinishing field for almost 50 years, teaching it at a public technical school before retirement. I bought a 1998 Nissan Frontier new. In 2008 the headlights had yellowed and dulled. Most folks that sanded and clearcoated them missed one small, but critical step. I sanded and clearcoated them, sold the truck in 2019 with 397,000 miles on it. It still ran fine, everything worked, and the headlights still looked great. First: I used a high quality, name brand eurethane clear. I sprayed some purple power on them initially, which instantly dissolves the yellow dead plastic, it literally runs off the headlight immediately. Then I thoroughly rinsed it off, doing one headlight at a time. You want to rinse immediately because the purple power can dull surrounding trim and painted areas if left on too long. It saves alot of sanding as the yellow is gummy and a pain to aand off. I wet sanded them with 800 grit. Today's eurethane clears, especially name brand, have very powerful uv screeners. But, if it peels, what good is it? After the headlights dried, I taped them up for the clearcoat. The critical step: before clear, I applied one wet coat of plastic parts adhesion promoter. Its clear, and can be purchased at parts stores etc., I've seen it at certain Walmart's. After a 20 minute dry time I applied 2 coats of clear, with recommended dry time between. Applying plastic parts adhesive promoter is a must, if not, the clear will inevitably delaminate over time.

  • I've tried several different ways to protect my lights. Living in upstate NY, and driving through winter, there isn't much you can do to save the lenses from road salt, sand, gravel, etc. The best solution I've found, was Lamin-X film. I have a pair of Hella 500FF fog lights on my push bar. After getting pelted with everything winter can throw at it, even the film wipes off clean, and looks great, not to mention the lenses they are protecting. If you have to drive in bad weather, or off road, I can't say enough about how well this film works.

    • Macarius freestyle They say they watch it without even having a car because Chris fix makes his video entertaining while also doing mechanical work Well that’s my opinion while Scotty His a professional mechanic and all but doesn’t keep the watchers eyes Not hating just an opinion

  • Ended up replacing the assemblies in my wife's old Accord. I wish I knew about the coatings as it was a pain and expensive to replace the assemblies. Thanks for the video!
