Hey guys, I am working on a 2001 Honda Civic. I have tried using PlastX by had. Just apply with a microfiber applicator. I have improved them but there is still some oxidation/scratches. Is there any other method to do. I am confused on how using sand paper can improve your headlights. Is the Power Drill Attachment with the entire Meguiar's Kit worth getting. I will post a picture soon.

Re: Headlight Restoration
Here's what I did...
Done by hand. Sandpaper will remove the plastic down to the lowest portion of the scratch. Same principle as with paint.
The headlights in my pictures had basically been sand blasted from desert state driving, and had a few deep scratches from misc stuff from the road hitting them, so wet sanding was a must.
Good luck!The only reason some people get lost in thought... is because it is unfamiliar territory for them.

You can also use a rotary buffer for restoring clarity and shine to plastic but because it's a very powerful tool you have to be careful not to burn the plastic by keeping the buffing pad in one place too long.
Of course, sometimes a plastic lens can become to far gone to ever restore to like new condition and you have to accept whatever you can get for results or replace it.
