0:18 is my favorite part in your intros, "PERFECT!" haha I love that little sound bite

I am a mechanic I do the hard jobs but at 63 years old this looks like something I want to get into, I always enjoyed detailing cars, I have the best buffers and can make the paint shine, but the headlights look better after they are buffed and waxed but it does not last long, a month later they are foggy again, I tried water sanding and using a clear ceramic engine enamel, that did work to some degree, thank you for showing me the right way to do it, I will never do a half assed headlight restoration again

Whew so glad to see you back .....12 freakin days man.....I almost watched an inferior competitor! Another great episode....I'm done ranting.....:)

I'm on my way to beginning my mobile HRB here in Barbados. Should be ready to go in June. It's always summer here. Every other car I pass needs restored, and there are no professional headlight restoration businesses on the island.

When you said you used Deep Woods my mouth dropped.😱 Glad you were just joking 🤣🤣 Your methods are superior!!! I have done 9 cars so far and people can't believe their eyes. Thank you

"Hey there, really dig your videos! It'd be awesome if you could do a video showing how to restore headlights with some parts where the clear coat's peeling and others without it. Thanks a bunch for the awesome content you've put out!"

thank you for all of instructional videos. I started as a beginner and now the results are so much easier and better. I have completed about 60 headlights and have had a few problems due to age and prior coatings. I have gained so much knowledge from your videos. I still stay away from BMWs, KIAs, Porsches and Mercedes. I will become a PRO like you with more experience,,,thanks again

Dude this EXACT thing happened to me. I was pissed when I went to use my p600s and found out Hookit II was a totally different mounting platform that's now discontinued and apparently wiped from the internet lmao... ive gotta make a custom interface pad like you did.

Headlight pro, great work as always, I really enjoy watching u work, that inspires me, thanks for sharing, Don.

Excellent job once again which pads you used for the other side and do you switch your polishing drill over to set settings 2 for more rpm’s to get better clarity ?

I’ve been searching through your videos. Have you done a jeep with the extremely coned delights on it believe the one is a liberty

Is there any way to avoid the fine scratches from microfiber cloths after polishing? Also, I want to express my genuine gratitude for all the information you provide. As a woman in a male-dominated industry, it can be quite intimidating, but you have definitely helped alleviate some of that fear. Thank you so much!"

Wanted to say thank you for the excellent tutorials and info! Very entertaining too and I get a kick out of the way you make up your own words. I looked in the bio and I don't see anywhere that actual thin black disc pad holder that you use, can you describe more of that and a link.

One thing that’s super not consistent is choice of polish compound. This vid Plastix !! What ??? Did the trick though. One thing I’ve been using lately with superior results is Crest mint toothpaste dab method. Wow what a shine and customer loves the fresh smelling minty headlights !!! I’ll be watching for this ninja method I. One of your upcoming vids. Thanks for all you do. I’ve learned a lot.

I recently found your channel and I'm really glad I did!!! You really have headlight restoration down to a science! I've done a few headlights too, also color-sanded paint, and with every video I'm thinking, "Why is this guy jumping from 800 to 3000 Trizact?" Have you tried using 1500 Trizact in-between the 800 and 3000? Pretty sure it's available in 3" pads. There's no doubt your results are awesome, really beautiful, just wondering if you ever tried the 1500 Trizact and what your thoughts were if you did. Thanks for sharing your method!

I have my taillights on my car to do still, but using your method on my headlights took em from 0 to hero. Polish product was chemical guys with the Mcguires clear coat finish. Big thank you bro.

Hell yeah man it's very universal you can use it on any light on the vehicle... And there's also many other cross threaded applications that you can use the technology on....

I learned that OFF spray ruins plastic and synthetic surfaces by spraying it on my sneakers a few times. I thought I was doing good to keep the bugs away but that stuff deteriorated the surfaces big time. The shoes got all sticky and attracted dust. I can only imagine what it does to headlight plastic.

Just curious once that's done how long do they last before the next restoration without maintenance

I own a fleet of Starships, each with 200 spotlights that always need restoration.

Hey Mr. Pro, i wana preface this by saying i was an idiot for thinking the 2k clear method would work. I should’ve done more research and did it on another set of headlights before trying it on my own. With that being said i wetsanded both my headlights and sprayed them with 2k clear. The left one has cracking that isn’t exactly like spider cracking, more swirled out. Anyway i was wondering if using your headlight restoration method would work to remove the 2k clear and get them looking better than they’ve ever looked before.

Do you notice a difference In quality of sand paper ? I buy the cheaper disks but I don’t know if their is a difference .

Doe you have the link to an old generation Toyota sequoia?

How many of those polishers have you had to replace ? I was wondering if the Milwaukee M12 polisher would be just as good or is there a special feature on the AC Delco ?

I am I DIY'er and was looking to buy some of the products you use. The 3M Plastic Cleaner: Headlight Lens Cleaner is no longer available that I can find, do you know where I may be able to purchase or what the next best product you recommend?

To hell with mosquitoes, im in southeast texas doing headlight restoration and twice ive had them land on the light as im spraying my clear. I now keep tweezers in my kit to hurry and peel them off.

You're my hero 🎉😅

I try to be...lol🤓💯😁

What do you do if only half the light has the damage and the other half looks new ? Treat the whole thing ?

Bro I’ve been waiting for soft headlight videos I’ve following your methods been working out great but man I’m stuck on this dam 2020 Durango headlight its soft & can still see scratches after polish only had this problem on this car none of the others did light pressure double stuff method n still see them 🤦‍♂️ ima try this method later but still have to get out the original P500 scratches on these any advice will help thanks bro

Do you got any advice for me , where and how to get customers , I'm 16 and i don't know how

OTW 👍🏻

Why do you hand sand the p800 instead of drill sanding?

The 3000 sandpaper is used on each light bulb or you can use it on both light bulbs

2000-2008 Ford F150 are my nemesis !! Especially when there's still half of the clear coat on them. I don't know if the lower rpm drill should be used for the sending and the lower rpm for the polishing or vice versa? I've done about 20 car's and they look like great, but for the life of me, I can't satisfactorily do F150, and I use more sandpaper almost double what you do,,,lol,,,and I buy straight off your link's !!! Except I have different drills, 1 up to 750 rpm and the other up to 2400 rpm. Please help me,,,,, Ford F150 will be the death of me . Lol .

Brother I thought I was following your process to the letter. But I have somehow screwed up one headlight. I think it was the backing pad I was using with my drill. I have one that's not got the foam softness under the velcro, it's just rigid. Didn't realize I had the soft foam one. So I used it with the 500 grit, got it all cloudy, stepped up to the 800, then the trizac pad. After realizing I had the foam backing pad, I used it on the next one. It is crystal clear. So 4 times now I have used the 800 to get all the fine swirls out from the 500, then the trizac, then even used polishing compound and polished them, (I do some personal paint correcting on our vehicles) and it makes zero difference no matter what I do. Those slightly hazy swirls will not budge. It's not nearly as clear as the other one. Still has that cloudy hazy look. So I just keep repeating thinking the 800 plus the rest of the process will do it. Nope. Nothing seems to work. Have you ever had this happen early on? I don't know what to do. I thought about going ahead and spraying the Meguiars coating on it thinking maybe it would fill in the micro fine swirls all over it. But I'm afraid it won't help and I'll have wasted it and still have a slightly cloudy lens. PLEASE HELP!!
