    Head Light Restoration.

    I used this kit today. Just follow the directions to the letter.
    I sawed off the adjustment nibs and sanded them flush to the lens, before I used the kit, so I could use the sanding discs over the entire lens. (otherwise those bubs will tear up your disks and give you a horrible finish).
    Cost me $18 at NAPA.
    If I can do it, most men could. There is an instructional video at the website. I reviewed several consumer kits, including Permatex and Flitz, but chose 3M. I had to go back the first time and sand a few more passes with the 500 and 800 grit discs. I recommend at least four passes with each disc. Always use water sprayed onto the lens, and wipe away the slurry frequently. Finish with plastic polish or some other sealant. I am going to cover these lenses with 3M paint protection film. No more pitting.
