Default Headlight polish Glassylite

i tried this stuff on my very yellow clear indicators this morning and for once, a product that actually does what it claims to do!!

i got it from auto-one, it costs about 40$ bux, comes with everything you need to do both sides and its actually fun to do, as shown by this cheeky video! http://au.youtube.com/watch?v=7AuRJ0huyks



have fun!

Good to know. I have used the meguiars Plastix and that does a decent job as well.

I've had the same results with a bit of cutting polish & turtle wax, all it does is take the dead/faded surface off.

These were almost brown, hit them with some ordinary cutting compound then a quick rub with some polish & they came out perfect(about 5min all up) done quite a few others EF Falcon & Daewoo same as in the vid with the same results, so unless this stuff puts some sort of magic sun block on I seriously think you are wasting $40.
Just re do them every 6 months.

finally sold it last night

You just answered the question. I researched it before i used it. It does have a finishup sealer that protects the light. Comes up real glassy when the sealer goes on and spose to last for years not months like hand polishing. I recommend it.
