sanding

Thanks for the tips on how to do this. When you were sanding were you using back and forth or were you doing circles, I want to get this right so I dont mess anything up. Let me know.

I was doing a back and forth motion. Just make sure that you don't press down hard. Make sure the sandpaper glides over the headlight. Keep on dipping it in the water/soap solution.
