Clearing up foglights!

Post by JohanGPX »

Hey guys, just wanted to let you all know I found a product that cleans up your fog lights to look clear again:

Re-po water rubbing compund, costs about $15 from Autobarn but defs worth it! :D
I haven't tried using a polishing finish or clear coat yet, but I'm assuming it would improve the results even more.
:cheers:

I used Autosol on mine and they came up good as new. It costs $7 from Bunnings and it takes like 5 minutes to clean each headlight.

I'd definitely try using a polishing/rubbing compound before you pull out the sand paper.

Yeah it's all a lot cheaper than a restoration kit. And I've already cleared up both my headlights, can still post pics of results if you would like? Otherwise I'm sure someone else can take before and after pictures! :D

There's a similar thread in the DIY section that has some before and after pics.
