DIY: How to Restore Headlights (Sanding and Spraying)

Permanently restore your headlights like if they were straight out of the factory by wet sanding and spraying a clear coat. Sandpaper Perfect!

Clean your headlights the right way and permanently! Use sandpaper and a good clear coat for that perfect brand new headlight look. Stop using toothpaste, or whatever household materials that hardly make a difference.

Paint used: Dulpi-Color Acrylic Enamel.
Avoid others brands of paint as they are not as clear.

This video will explain how to make your vehicles headlights clean once again. I used materials that are cheaper than most headlight restoration kits. I used acrylic enamel paint (clear)(dont use krylon), 600 grit sand paper, 1500 grit sand paper, and masking tape. All of which were bought at a local auto parts store. The outcome (if done correctly) can prove to be better than most headlight restoration kits. When sanding, wet the headlight and the sand paper. Make sure there is plenty of water. (This is called wet sanding)

WARNING: THIS IS NOT AN EASY PROCESS. IF YOU MAKE A MISTAKE, IT TAKES QUITE A BIT OF WORK TO FIX.
If possible, use a microfiber material to dry the headlight to further help prevent any scratches to the surface.
