With regards headlights, you can buy headlight restoration kits from the likes of meguiars, turtle wax etc. or I just used varying grades of wet and dry on mine (600-1500 I think), buffed with a DA/medium cut compound, cleaned and used some K2 lamp protect from amazon to coat them. Came up like new :thumbsup:
Awesome. Any particular one?
All much the same I think… meguiars, 3M, turtle wax and auto-glym are the ones I see generally :thumbsup:

Well worth doing though!

They recommend using one of their wax products. Resin something, seems to work, looks nice. :thumbsup:
Sweet thanks
