    tail light help

    hello guys, I was woundering what products are the best to detail tail lights. I can not get them swirl free like I have seen on some threads. Thanks for any help I can get.

    i usually use m105-205 and have no problems. if the scratches are deep enough, you may need to wet sand them first with1500-3000 grit, then follow up with polishing.

    Steve said it! Just go aggrssive on them and tape the area`s around so you dont damage anything. Plastic is gonna be very forgiving to getting laid into.

    Thanks guys, I will try it and post before and after shots. I am working on a 1995 lexus ls400 and the lights are destroyed. I am also going to try to restore the lenses on my lightbar. I will post that to.
