a couple of weeks ago i decided to restore my 03 pt cruiser headlights. they really weren't that bad, but they did have some mild hazing and scratches. i started by wetsanding using 1000-1500-2000 grit paper from 3m. then i used a lite cut compound, polish and sealent. i think they turned out pretty good...

They're showing up on my computer.

The problem is you loaded them into your "Album" in your Control Panel instead of uploading them into the forum gallery. Note there's no watermark.

Here's how I could tell, I right clicked on the image and looked at the URL address... note the word album in the address.

If you can please use the forum photo gallery for images you want to share in threads.

That said we think we'll turn off the Album option for users accounts, that way there won't be any confusion as to where to add pictures for use on the forum.

We have more pictures of what PlastX has done than we have time to upload and insert images into threads...

It's a must-have tool for your tool box....

As someone who just used it on RED plastic (http://meguiarsonline.com/forums/showthread.php?t=26196)... I'll vouch for PlastX. Even if I did typo the name in my post.
