WHat did you use? Microfiber cloth? Toothbrush?

just some cheap toothpaste from the dollar store.

and any old rags i could find.

 

polish (really hard) with the toothpaste.

rinse and inspect. for mine, i had to do twice. the more jialat case, i think have to do more times.

 

then end with a layer of car wax. i used turtleshell.

the car wax is to seal the headlamp. and also restore some shine to it as well.

 

effort? about 1 hour.

gotta really use GBL and GNL to get the blurry stuff out.

 

if your headlights are blurry from the inside, then this method will not work liow.
