  • 1998 Honda Accord Headlight Resto

    Well, I came across some gift cards today with $40 on each and decided "why not go get some PlastX and some other toys" Get to Kragen, they have a coupon for the new Meguiars Headlight Restoration Kit for $19.99, I got the last one. Came home and got right to work. This is after 2 passes using the supplied drill pad. The lights have heavy chips on them from hard abuse.

    Should I wetsand to get a better result and/or smoother surface then reapply PlastX?
    Currently has 200,000 miles on it.

    AND yes i know my tape job is really bad
    TOOLS USED:
    Black and Decker corded drill
    Meguiars Headlight Restoration Kit

            Looks good, you could try a small area with wet sanding and see if the results are worth it to you. I can't remember if that kit comes with sand paper.

              I used 3000 on my lights and they didn't improved that much. So I would say you did a good enough job and you really can't improve much. But you can try.
