Hey guys ive had this annoying mark on my headlight ever since i got my car 4 years ago. I wanna do something about it.
Its a mark, not a scratch. Its not deep. I was wondering if sanding or something is possible?
Considering you cant upload pictures on this forum, i posted on another. Ive got a couple of pictures included.
Heres the link

do a search for delaminating you'll find a number of threads which cover this.

i used brasso on mine and a lot of it came off.... you can still see the outline though.... i think brasso does the same thing as sanding would except its no where near as harsh

make sure you're using the forum search button (the one between forum FAQ and Usergroups at the top of this forum), not the search box at the top of the page and not the search link on the left of the page.

well i gave my headlight a sand with 1000 then 1200 grade sandpaper.
Gave the headlights a polish with meguires ScratchX and boy they have come out like new! Cant believe how easy it was to do, and didnt do it earlier!!
