Headlights Cleared

Greg Gellas

I'm Greg :)
Did another set of lights tonight, fiance's sister so it was a free bee, but I hope to get paid in other ways ;)....



The only thing I used from the 3m kit was 2 pieces of 800 grit paper on their holder. After that I went to my wet sandpaper from Meg's. 1500-2000-2500-3000. I finished up with Meg's mirror glaze #10 to polish out the headlight once I was done wetsanding :D



This is what I was dealing with...

Nice! I just did the headlights and tails on my mom's 2002 Altima yesterday (no pics), and they came out excellent. Here's what I used:



PC 7424

Adam's 4" orange pad w/ Meg's Ultimate Compound

Adam's 4" white pad w/ Meg's M205
 
I wish just compund would have taken these back but they were so bad I had to wetsand :(



Before you guys get going...Paid from the Fiance ;) NOT the SISTER :D

Kill joy.



Looks like it will take a bit more than wet sanding on those fenders!
 
:D The fender and the bumper marks came off...I tried clay, no go...I used some tarminator and "scrubbed" with a MF and they dissappeared...;) Just some scuff marks. :grinno: If I got paid to do her car 20+ hours easily....But I know the Fiance won't "pay" that much ;)
