Headlights - First Thread

**Freekin Kleen** · 03-30-2010, 10:13 PM

While at Detail Fest, I happen to grab a 3M Headlight Kit. In the past, I have always sanded by hand before polishing by machine...always had great results that way. Today I decided to try the kit. I must say I`m not really a fan. That doesn`t mean I wouldn`t recommend it...just not for me. As I have said in my "Intro" thread, I`ll start taking pics of my work. Today I had a headlight restoration and snapped a few pics.

Products in the steps used:
* 3M 500 grit paper (kit)
* 3M 800 grit paper (kit)
* 1500 grit Fritz scuff pads (which I like)
* Auto Magic XP Compound (Using up old products before buying more)
* Wolfgang TSR
* Klasse sealent

Here it goes....

I bought a similar kit from Pro and after I opened it I said "why the hell did I buy this". I was able to exchange it so I was happy. Nice job on the resto btw.

Thanks. I probably wouldn`t have tried one if it wasn`t given to me.
