Directions:

Clean

Clean the area thoroughly to ensure there is no dirt, grime or bugs on the surface of the headlights and dry them. Using masking tape, mask the paintwork, plastics and trim around the headlight to protect the surrounding area.

Remove fading and scratches

Depending on the condition you may be required to heavily sand out the imperfections by hand with wet sanding paper. (stage 2) Fill a spray bottle with water, mist the surface of the headlight and the paper and lightly rub it on the surface in a left to right or up and down direction. Frequently stop sanding and dry the surface to inspect if you have removed all the oxidization, pitting and scratches.

Once the heavy defect removal has been completed we now begin the refining process, bringing the clarity back to the plastic

Restoring Clarity back into the Headlight

Apply a 10c sized blob of the S3GOLD compound onto the white spider pad attached to the backing plate and spread the compound into the pad. With the pad lightly pressed on to the headlight, turn on the machine, moving at 2-3cm per second, working the sanding scratches out the plastic.
Work half a headlight at a time. Continue to polish until the compound has turned clear.
Reapply and repeat until all the sanding marks and traces have been removed.
Next we are going to turn these headlights crystal clear, using our finishing compound (Scholl Concepts S30+) and finishing pad (Orange Pad) with the same technique as the previous step.
