This is an excellent video. It explains all of the reasons why the headlights deteriorate and the repair options. I like the way the video was produced and options presented based on your budget and tools available. The personality of the presenter made it fun to watch and wasn’t done in a childish way. Keep up the good work.

I like that this feels informative and not really like a sales pitch or bad intentions

The fact that you actually show examples of when it "goes wrong" is priceless Best video out there on the subject

I applaud your teaching techniques. You've been the best advisor on the various methods of restoring headlights I've reviewed thus far. You broke it down to a level of compression and simplicity for most DIY'ers to attempt this procedure on their own and accomplish like new finishes aka results. Thank you sincerely. The added information regarding car brand headlights was very helpful also for I too have a Honda (3) that are in need of restoration. Keep up the great work.

the best video for headlight restoration!! very straightforward, detailed and very well explained. No bullshit at all.

Extremely helpful video. I've watched a bunch but yours by far is the best

Most complete video about the subject I've seen by far!

After watching numerous videos on this topic on KZread, I have to say this one was one of the best. Thank you for posting this video. It was extremely informative and very helpful to me. The beginning with the toothpaste was genius and very funny. I am looking forward to checking out more of your videos. Best wishes for your continued success.

Now I understand why I won't be wasting money on new headlight. I have bought some sanding grith, polish, clear coat for headlight (in a paint spray from a local supplier). This video is totally a complete session on how, when and why to use different methods. For me sanding and than polishing and finnally uv protective coat is the only option as per this video.

Channel is underrated! This guy is cool too

whats the difference between a polish for body clearcoat vs headlight polish? Are the abrasives different? This is the best video i have seen on this subject. Im impressed with the explanation and the details you have put into this. Putting the headlight under a usb microspope was perfect for me, the visuals were amazing. Keep up the great work.

@OSRENOfficial

Hey, great question! So we can't speak for others, but based on our experience throughout the years, the formulation is different. Both surfaces are different and react differently to different abrasives and solvents. Some manufacturers will use a mixture of abrasives for headlamp including aluminium oxide, silica based abrasives and different solvents. (plastic is harder than paint, and using the right solvent means easier cutting on plastic) While for paint, many prefer finer aluminium oxide and a solvent that is paint friendly. Using paint abrasive/formulation on headlamp is usually fine. But once in a while, might get into difficulty in refining it (micro swirls especially) on certain types of plastic. Hence a properly formulation headlamp abrasive will make things easier and produces better results with the same effort. Same can be said for glass abrasives. choices of abrasive and solvent is different, making it a safer and more effective choice.

As a novice, can I just ask...does not all this sanding and polishing g reduce the quality of the headlamp? Does it not make it thinner? Wouldn't it be better to replace?

Hello. just finish clear coat my headlight and got orange peel. If Im want to use sandpaper. what grit it should be?. finer grit right?. and after sanding no need to do anything right?. clear coat not totally gone right?.

Wish you'd make a video describing all the tyoes of damage to headlights

Hi Jamie, this video was shot 2 years plus ago, and the car headlamp (sprayed with clear coat) is still going strong (as of 4th Jan 2024). Yet to oxidise. We reckon it should last about the same as a factory sprayed headlamp, given the way our colleague is taking care of her car (usually by us). longevity really depends on quality of item/product and how it is being taken care of. But, definitely longer lasting than coating.

Hi, I need advice on 1 particular idea I have if I'm to go manual method. If I would to combo the sanding, vapor treatment and finishing it with a can of clear coat, will that help? Please advise. I find this as an interesting project to work on my car.

@OSRENOfficial

2 жыл бұрын

Hey Jourdan, if you are going to use the clear coat method, you may sand it down and spray the clear coat without the need for vapor polishing. make sure the oxidized part are fully sanded, you may stop at 1500grit or 2000grit and have it cleaned with alcohol prior to applying the clear coat.

The Clear coat I can buy in the ukk is in a spray format and not aerosol pray. Are those clear coat pumps are useable? or you recommend somethimng else?

@OSRENOfficial

Hey Laszlo, unfortunately we don't quite understand what you meant by spray format clear coat as we have not come across it. For most clear coat, best is to atomise it (disperse) as small as possible, hence air pressure is always recommended in form of aerosol and air gun. Aerosol might cause slightly uneven texture, a good air spray quality gun with a powerful air compressor often does a better job. You might be able to get away with headlamp for aerosol spray, but anything lesser than it, most likely might not produce an acceptable result.
