I’m a 71 year old female. I’m the original owner of a 2004 Honda Accord with only 61K miles. Last evening I was positive my headlights weren’t working. There were areas of my route I had to use high beams. When I got home, I discovered they were working but the lens were so cloudy very little light was getting through. I texted some male friends and said they can be cleaned for $100-300. I discovered your video! I have the Mr Clean magic erasers. I just used a couple days ago to clean the white edge of my tennis shoes. I will buy the spray protectant and clean ASAP. Thank you for your excellent tutorial. I have been able to diagnose and fix several problems myself by watching Utube videos. I will let you know how my application goes. Thank you from Dallas
Please let us know
I hope all is well and we're still awaiting your reply!
I'm 74 and a few months ago changed my 2019 CRV brake lights. Looove KZhead DIY🎉

Thank you for sharing
Dang.... this is one of the most useful how to videos I have ever watched. Thank you!
You put a lot of work into this video- It was very helpful- Thank you.
Nice job explaining everything tks brother.
Thank you so much for this video, I'm an older woman and I live on a fixed income, your video helped me to clean my own headlights and not have to go around asking for help to clean them when I can do it myself. 😊👍💕 You are a God send .
Yes, me too, I really don't want to go around looking for help... A great video to keep older women independent. 😊❤
This guy wanted to charge 85- to do for me What?! Also, how do you get that moisture out of the inside lens’s? 🙏🏼
Moisture?
Thank you so much. I have a 2003 Lincoln Town Car and now I will be able to clean the headlights. I, too, am a 79 year old female who has asked many men how to do this with no help. You explained everything so well. Blessings to you.
Woulds love to help you with ANYTHING Sandra.....I'm in Virginia....God Bless you also
I just use acetone nail polish remover. Makes them crystal clear in one pass. Don't make more than one pass...additional passes cause the fog again. Don't get it on your paint.
@@Lili-xq9sn I thought nail polish remover was hard on plastic.
@@donald8354 yes, thats why is instantly removes the yellow layer.
These men these days ain't shit. Excuse my language but it's true. Most of them are trifling and lazy. I have a so called friend who if I ask for his help with something he would rather tear something up than to fix it. That's why I've got to where I stay by myself. If you don't want to see me succeed and you know can't you help me fix especially something electrical then just stay away from me!!
'96 Avalon here and they're as cloudy as Seattle, WA on a foggy and overcast day! THEY'RE SUPER BAD!!! I Can't wait to do this 2moro! I was actually pricing lights today (TOO MUCH $ for fixed income woman) and your video suddenly appeared... I just wanna be safe and with your helpful video that is now going to be a reality. THANK YOU FROM THE TOP AND BOTTOM OF MY HEART!!!
I too am a senior citizen and can’t afford to have things done by others thanks for the tips !!
Crazy Car Mods: Yes, we would LOVE to know how to clean the "moisture" out of the headlights, as well. Thank you for sharing your knowledge & skills with us. I have LIKED and subscribed to your channel. Looking forward to seeing more of your tutorials! I'm very grateful...I LEARNED so much! ;-D
Very nicely done video, I love how you broke it down to easy steps, without skipping important details. But I wanted to know how you applied the clear coat without runs or too little for fovgyness Your layout of products was well done. Two 👍
Agree both of mine have moisture in them
Hair dryer ??
I also would like to clear moisture from headlights. Thanks for your video, God Bless you!!!
Sometimes the moisture builds up inside the headlight and is impossible to remove. But very helpful tips here.
You did a great job on not only showing us what to use, but why that individual product works the way it does. Great video! Thank you.
This presentation is reasonable and provides much insight. I appreciate it. Thanks!
I had a mechanic drill a couple if holes at bottom edge of a light to drain any trapped water. Works fine.
I once had to drill a small hole in mine. It was literally a quarter full of water.
Excellent! Everyone can see you put a lot of thought and work into this experiment. My hat is off to you.
You are very detailed and comprehensive in your video. Thank you for a thorough coverage
Thank you for showing an old woman how to clean the headlights on her car it was a great help loved watching the video you are very informative got to the point excellent the best video I've seen yet thank you again God bless
This is exactly what I needed!! You're so pleasant, thorough and informative thank you so much
Great video, thank you! I missed the part on the WD40 application. It sounds as if you applied it alone but, what if you apply it after your favorite cleaning method? Oh, and yes, I'd be interested and look forward to watching your video on how you remove condensation and if possible, how to fix the leak/prevent it from happening again.
Use a small foam pad on a drill instead of a toothbrush, and you will get much better results. Then put a coat of wax on it and buff it out. When you've done that, use a nano wax product of your choice on the headlights, and follow up with a clean foam pad and you will have the best looking headlights around. Good luck with your restoration project, take care, and stay safe.
Great advice!
The original video was excellent and helpful, but I've come down to the approach you describe. Power that baby out! Lickity split.
Very helpful hints thank u. I took notes and will try.
Only if you have a drill. As a woman I never had a need for a drill. I'm beginning to see a drill is actually a very helpful item for more than one type of use. I wouldn't know what kind to get though. Are they all the same? I miss my late husband 😒 he took care of all these kinds of things. Everybody should at least learn how to do stuff in case you find yourself in the position to need that skill. 👍
@@BabyMonkeyDefender Definitely get a drill. And different size drill bits. You can use the drill to make holes and to turn screws. It beats a butter knife. Look through some of his tools (if you kept any) I’ll bet you find all sort a helpful items. Then learn what they can do. Have fun with it and good luck. Happy New Year!
Thank you for explaining each one, it was so helpful. I still have to do mine, I just got a 2015 Nissan Altima and I can barely see the road.
Thank you for sharing your talent and information on how to clean the car headlights. Great video.
The rug seems to have a certain shimmer to it. It looks absolutely luxurious and exquisite! ❤😊
This is the best tutorial I've ever seen for headlights . Thank you so much!
This was an awesome helpful video. Clear and simple with all the details as to how and why. Excellent 👍
You have taught me so much! Thank you. I can't wait till tomorrow morning to clean my dull headlights!
Thank you so much for such a thorough explanation of each diy produce.
A couple of years ago, I paid Walmart $25 to clean my headlights. It looked great but only lasted the better part of a year. Thank you for all this info! You've been a blessing to this old woman. 😊
$25 is pretty cheap really.
@@shayronrausch3173 If I can do it myself, it's even cheaper.
It would be interesting to find out what Walmart uses to clean them... Anybody from Walmart like to share? It was problem WD40...
Yes, that was way cheaper than I paid.
Great video! Love the hacks! Awesome trying them all, very objective.
Ive watched a few different videos on this subject but this is by far the best..thanks for the tips
Excellently presented video. Very professional!
The combo is the best so far.
I wish SOOOO MUCH whoever got the idea for these PLASTIC HEADLAMPS had them stuck where the sun don't shine. The GLASS Seal Beams were superior and CHEAP to replace. This is just another gimmick the CONSUMER ECONOMY has to keep people BROKE. But having said that, you did a GREAT JOB!!! I have ONE question though, after applying the clear coat, when it goes BAD, it will one of these days, how do you clean it THEN??? Great Video!!! BB
Just get a turtle wax restoration kit and put a lot of clear coating on after your done. The grit paper sands off all of the oxidation and the clear coat protects it from the sun for atleast a year. After any of these in this video you can expect oxidation after 3-6 months. That's why the kit is worth 20$.
Q
@@thestranger1164 For $20 bucks you could buy to NEW seal beams that would last for YEARS.
I just use acetone nail polish remover. Makes them crystal clear in one pass. Don't make more than one pass...additional passes cause the fog again. Don't get it on the paint.
@@Lili-xq9snhow long does the nail remover last?
I have watched many videos but you are the only one that made sense. Thank you.
thank you so much,such a good video, I have spent alot of money on products trying to clear my bad headlights so really appreciate all the info- I had no idea about the clear coat.
Thank you for this video! This will definitely help me out. Please show how to get moisture out of them also. Thanks again!
Great tutorial. I've had questions how to do this for a long time. Thanks!
I am so glad I researched this! Thank you so much for your detailed demostration! You are amazing!❤
Excellent video........... thank you for taking the time to explain each process.
Thank you for confirming and proving what I already knew. Now I can prove to everyone I've been trying to tell this to, that I'm not crazy and actually know what I'm talking about! Thank you again!
I’m
Thank you for posting this video I’ll give those ideas a try
Hey…thanks for this video was very helpful for me to clean my headlights…….you answered a whole bunch of questions…thanks again…not taken for granted !!
Excellent video!!! Thank you so much. Will use these techniques on my vehicle this weekend. Stay tuned. Robin
Perfect advise. Going to use it today.
Excellent job on this presentation! Thank you. I would like to know how to get moisture out of headlights without removing the cover.
Wow this is so great... thank you God Bless!!!😍
Very clear precise direction. Thank you so much 👍❗
Thank you for your time and knowledge and working to share it with us. Most helpful! Thank you!
Awesome job!! Thanks for the information!
This test was the best lve ever seen Thanks much!!
Thanks for your advice. I found a bicarb (baking) soda toothpaste which worked really well. I was left with a fine haze, though. My finishing touch was an application of "Brasso" metal polish: Rub on, leave to dry, then polish off vigorously with a soft cloth. The result is magic! I use Brasso to clean scratches off CDs & DVDs too..!
Im definitely gonna be using that combo on mine...thank yiu very helpful video.❤
I'd like to see how you get the moisture out of the headlight so if it is somewhere, I didn't see and will keep looking. I've tried a few of these in the past but will definitely try the others. Thanks for the extra ideas.
Same
Great well thought out video guide!
I ABSOLUTELY enjoyed your video. You explained everything very, very, well. I will watch all your videos. Thanks Again For The Tips..!!❤
This is excellent! Thank you very much!! Yes, I need moisture help too, I keep replacing the bulb because of the moisture issue.
The black car n light grey look like new great job.
Very helpful video and many of us have these products on hand. A big thank you.
The combo definitely wins out. Next is the coke treatment. Thanks for showing these hacks. You did a great job with the comparisons, as well.
Thank you. I did many years ago pay to have them done but didn't last. I will be using one of your tips then clear coating. I sure appreciate you posting & showing all ways. 😊
Thanks for all the info. Very informative.
Another use for the clear coat: After caulking around tub/floor and toilet stool. Blends, lasts, invisible. Been a few years and still looks like new!
I will try the Mr Clean Eraser fb the 2X Ultra Clear Coat. Thanks for the tips.
Nice job! Yes, we would like you to show us how to get the condensation out of headlights. Thanks!👍🏼
Thank you for the science lesson, very interesting. Can I use these methods on my tail lights as well? And yes please let me know how to get rid of the moisture in my lights. This was a great video. Thank you.
Thank you for taking time to make this video! Very helpful. I liked the mix of 3.. baking soda, hydrogen, and vinegar best. The wd 40 looks crazy good, to bad it's only temporary.
I’m curious if you use the wd40 after one of the other methods to make it look even better
@@CaesarWaesarI thought the same thing ... especially good for driving your car to a special occasion, since the "boost" is temporary.
Thank you for these-much appreciated!😎
Great secrets to know ,thanks .And great money savers also.
Very good advice ! Smart ! Thank you !
I will try it out. Thanks for the info
Yes ,Sir I've been doing some research on my lights even trued ceramic cleaner for glass stove tops which is a good cleaner only problem it did not last But now with the clear coat amazing . Wow thanks for your help 🙂. 🐝
Nice explaining of process. Thanks I can now do it myself.
That combo is the stuff I'll try that !!
Very good tips. Never knew about the baking soda and peroxide. I always did the wet sanding and compound. Also, never knew about the clear coat after it. I always just waxed it afterwards to give it an extra layer of protection. It usually lasted about 6 months or so, but i can see that the clear coat would give me a couple years depending on whether i park outside or in a garage. Good info and tips.
Good looking bro
