Headlight restore
One of my headlights was replaced before I purchased and the other was oxidized really bad. I thought about buying a new one for $75 but thought I would give restoring it a shot first.
I had some Chemical Guys V Line products and found this video so pretty much followed his steps.
I used 1000, 2400, and 3600 grit sand paper with the v32 and v36 compounds. It's not perfect but it's definitely better, only took 45 minutes and didn't cost much money. I'll have to see how long it lasts.

I've restored a lot of headlights through the years, but one the UV coating on them, it only lasts about 6 months before they haze again. I miss the old glass lenses
