and the included sealant. I used my Griots Garage DA buffer with the included compound for the last step of the process. 5-6 passes with medium pressure on speed 4.

Thumbs up

My headlights look the same and I've tried everything, but I'm pretty certain that the oxidation is on the INSIDE, so the only option left to me is to just buy a new set of lenses.

Had you tried other kits before? Or was this the first time?

Either way, great job

Thanks. I have used this kit on multiple headlights, not just these. I guess it's possible for the oxidation to be on the inside, just not common.

Good job. I think I need something like that for my other vehicle.
