Headlamp restoration

Hi , just thought I’d share my experience of restoring my head lights

Reading Auto Express reviews I sceptically bought some Armour All wipes, not expecting much but the result is very good .

Happy Xmas and a top down New Year.

 

Let us know how long it lasts - WD40 works but only for a few days, good enough for an MOT though.

Hi Vaughan ,

It does come with a sealer so here’s hoping.

I did mine a few months ago https://www.mx5oc.co.uk/forum/yaf_postsm791590_What-have-you-done-to-your-MX-5-today.aspx#post791590

 

If you don’t ue a UV safe clear coat you’ll need to do them again in a couple of months.

I did mine with PlastRX as it was on offer at Halfords. Unfortunately, I didn’t have UV protector, but I did them once a few months after getting the car in the summer of 2018, which took a reasonable amount of time, and then did a light buffing with the same stuff earlier this year. So far, they still look much much better than when I bought the car so I’m a pretty happy bunny.
