Wow, thanks!

I second that. I've watched dozens of headlight restoration videos, this is the best hands down.

@@charleslinlinker1479 This video might be targeting detailing-OCDers like yourself. I'm just an idiot with yellowed headlamp covers trying to spruce up my car on the cheap for a quick profit during the used vehicle shortage. I don't own any of the tools, compounds/polishes this video highlights. I bet there's $400 worth of shiz I would need to replicate what this guy is doing. No thanks. I'm going with Chris Fix on this project.

@@brandonstrom7269 I definitely understand your point mate. There's a type of restoration technique for each application. I was looking for a more durable and professional one, and looks like to me that you're looking for a simplier one.

Seen them all but this is magnificent

Thank you Ben, most appreciated! -Kenneth

Hey, great question! So we can't speak for others, but based on our experience throughout the years, the formulation is different. Both surfaces are different and react differently to different abrasives and solvents. Some manufacturers will use a mixture of abrasives for headlamp including aluminium oxide, silica based abrasives and different solvents. (plastic is harder than paint, and using the right solvent means easier cutting on plastic) While for paint, many prefer finer aluminium oxide and a solvent that is paint friendly. Using paint abrasive/formulation on headlamp is usually fine. But once in a while, might get into difficulty in refining it (micro swirls especially) on certain types of plastic. Hence a properly formulation headlamp abrasive will make things easier and produces better results with the same effort. Same can be said for glass abrasives. choices of abrasive and solvent is different, making it a safer and more effective choice.

Thanks George for the encouragement, hope it helped!

Polishing will remove coating. Don't recommend polish after coating.

that was the plan xD

Thank you very much!

Thanks! Hope it helped!

Hey, so best to follow instructions from the clear coat manufacturer. Different coating has different curing time.

Hi Jamie, this video was shot 2 years plus ago, and the car headlamp (sprayed with clear coat) is still going strong (as of 4th Jan 2024). Yet to oxidise. We reckon it should last about the same as a factory sprayed headlamp, given the way our colleague is taking care of her car (usually by us). longevity really depends on quality of item/product and how it is being taken care of. But, definitely longer lasting than coating.

Hey Jourdan, if you are going to use the clear coat method, you may sand it down and spray the clear coat without the need for vapor polishing. make sure the oxidized part are fully sanded, you may stop at 1500grit or 2000grit and have it cleaned with alcohol prior to applying the clear coat.

Hey Laszlo, unfortunately we don't quite understand what you meant by spray format clear coat as we have not come across it. For most clear coat, best is to atomise it (disperse) as small as possible, hence air pressure is always recommended in form of aerosol and air gun. Aerosol might cause slightly uneven texture, a good air spray quality gun with a powerful air compressor often does a better job. You might be able to get away with headlamp for aerosol spray, but anything lesser than it, most likely might not produce an acceptable result.
