GlassyLite Headlight Restoration & Protection Kit

[KSINGH]

Hi Guys

I am thinking of getting this kit to restore my headlamps. Are these things worthwhile buying?

or perhaps other brands?

No idea about the product but its Autostyle so usually means its rubbish.

I can do the restore for you for a packet of chips and a coke. Its two hours of not so much effort.

I'm based in PTA and in all seriousness do it for R150. Its as simple as wetsanding the light covers down and then just polishing the sanding marks out.

Does this process remove the pitting caused by stone chips?

If the lenses are plastic yes, if they are glass probably not I've never tried.

Its more about the technique IMO, you can still screw it up with the best products.
