Headlight Restoration - 16 Year Old Porsche 911 (996) - ASMR

This Porsche 911 Carrera 4S (996) is in for a complete exterior transformation, starting off by restoring the headlights! This headlight restoration takes multiple steps to bring them back to their original clarity. This video showcases all the steps from cleaning, wet sanding, compounding, polishing and protecting the headlamps. I've worked on several 996's and they all seem to have faded and cracked headlights after a couple of years. This is my go-to method on making them look nice again!
Enjoy this ASMR style video! Give the video a thumbs up and consider subscribing to the channel! I'd highly appreciate it!

Amazing video! I recently had my headlights restored on my 09 C4S and the results were nowhere near as good. However, nor was the effort as great. My driver side headlight was considerably more compromised from an oxidation standpoint than the passenger and remains still slightly so, even if it is much improved. After viewing these incredible results, i just believe that I can definitely receive better results on the driver headlight from a more dedicated craftsman such as yourself. Thanks again for the eye opening results. With all due respect to the incredibly amazing clarity of those headlight lenses man, no pun intended! Lol! Thanks again my friend.

Two quick questions about the headlight restoration: 1) How many uses (or headlights) do you get out of those Rupes cutting discs before you have to dispose of them? and 2) how do you control the spatter from wet sanding with a DA machine? Or did you not worry about it because you needed to detail the rest of the car anyways?

@VermijlCarDetail 3 жыл бұрын

I've worked on several 996's and all of these seem to get heavily 'cracked' and start yellowing after a couple of years. Depending on how good or how bad they are, you might be able to get them looking nice with just polishing. But most of the time the only way to restore them to perfect clarity is by sanding.

This is what I usually do. Although I get down to 400 grit to remove the scratch resistant coating on some makes. I use Koch Chemie H9 as my compound because m105 wasn’t producing clear enough results on even my 2nd or 3rd pass. I use 205 and a rupes wool polishing pad. I finish with Opi-lens.

Sometimes you have to sand it down more, that's true. I've worked on several 996's and this seems to do the trick everytime. Haven't tried any Koch Chemie products, but I do want to try them out soon.

@Tonestoneee Жыл бұрын

Depends on what coating you are using, look up what your local dealers have. But somewhere between 10,000km-70,000km. If your car has Xenon headlights, it will be better to use a coating that's made for wheels. You can apply the ppf after polishing and then use a ceramic coating on top of the ppf for a better durability.

The important is that you always have to use another to refine, usually, it's double the number when it's more refined at the end, but in the beginning, you can start with 320 for example, then 480, 600, 800, 1000 or 1500, 2000, 3000, and then cutting pad and finishing with gloss pad.
