Murky headlamps

[gansianz]

Can anyone tell me how to polish the inside of my murky headlamps?? someone quoted me $40 to get it done..but can this be D.I.Y??

you will probobally find that the murkyness is on the outside of the headlight, not the inside (95% of cases are like this)

grab some cut 'n polish and polish it up, Should look mint!

a bottle of Meguires clear plastic polish (little blue bottle bought mine in K-Mart) Polish the outside with that ..... if still murky look at getting it done proffessionally ..... unfortunately while this stuff brings it up clears as ..... it quickly becomes murky again within 1-2 weeks..... but its something that only takes a minute to do so i polish my headlights every second weekend.

Thks!! thks!! it works...within minutes. never tot abt polishing the outside coz i had always tot its only the inside. now i really sound like those ignorant kid.

anyway, saved me from getting ripped off $40 by tht whoever....

thks a bunch.

Yeah, a number of things work on the headlights. Brasso, polishes, even toothpaste, but the effects don't last very long. But whenever you wash the car if you give the headlights a quick polish then it will keep them looking good:D

$40 to get the inside of the head lights cleaned if pretty good.

I'd rather spend the $40 on beer and have a speech-slurring afternoon doing it

if it's sealed properly, the affected surface will most probably be on the outside anyway..

i use a little dab of Autosol, buff it gently(don't get it on your paint) and wipe off the haze....works well!

Try Mothers plastic polish.

Work fine on me mates car.

[bully]

i used brasso it works as well and is cheaper than mothers or maquires do it each time you wash the car and it doesnt take long

i had some plastic polish a while ago some jap stuff, worked great, went missing somewhere so if anyone wants to use it, just post up and i am sure it will turn up. and then juss pass it around from there,

now where was this $40 in the inside clean etc, cos my prob appears to be on the inside dont know how or why, but yeah how do i contact the $40 hero

When they get done properly they wont go murky straight away, so it can be money well spent:D
