I’m assuming I can polish the plastic on the headlights in my 2006 Toyota Matrix. I plastic is still “clear”, but all the road grit over the years have pitted and fogged the surface. Any advice on material for polishing?
I use what Project Farm recommends.
I’ve had excellent luck with this kit from Sylvania.
The two cars I’ve used it on had their headlights stay clear after I polished them since you coat them with a UV protective layer. Make sure to follow the instructions! If it says to polish for X minutes, make sure you polish for X minutes. It’ll take some time but it’s totally worth it.
I’ve heard acetone works really well, but I haven’t tried it myself.
Don’t do it. It’ll clear it for a day or so, but with no UV protection it’ll haze up again really fast.
Get a proper kit, and make sure it has a UV protective coating to apply at the end.
