How can we clean our headlights and tailights? MY headlights have like water spots and stuff that wont come off with a normal car wash. Can I use 3m swirl remover or some rubbing compound on the headlights, and then put a coat of wax on?

 

I use Invisible Glass, but I'm sure Windex would work too.

 

i wet sanded mine, then buffed out with a compound, turned out brand new.

 

actually its like a bunch of small scratches in the headlight. How do i get those out?

 

clay bar then wax it

 

try 3M plastic cleaner.

 

Champ...don't you have a newer car(02/03)?

If so, I wouldn't use something abrasive...stick with clay bar & a good coat of wax...swirl remover will only imbed more scratches.

 

ya i got an 03, the headlights look fine during the day, at night when the lights are on I see all the tiny scratches, like a haze in the middle of the headlight. Doesnt look to hot.

 

They're gonna get those tiny swirls just from washing/driving, etc.

Just keep em clean & wax them...whatever you do, don't use an abrasive on those lenses...you'll kick yourself if you do...

Look into that 3M clear bra material...maybe it works on the lenses...would keep them from getting any worse anyhow.
