Video tutorial

This video shows how to restore the yellowed headlights of a Peugeot 207 using the sanding + polishing + ceramic coating method, for which you will need wet sandpaper in grades 500, 1000, 2000, and 3000. The video starts with 300, which is quite aggressive, and then a protective ceramic coating for headlights, which can be found on AliExpress with code 1005008986650111 for £19.30, free delivery over £20. Clean the bumper well and protect the paint around the headlight with masking tape: now sand with light circular movements, without pressing too hard, and keeping the paper wet. Start with 500, then 1000, 2000, and finally 3000, rinsing well each time.

The headlight should appear white and matte.

Apply the polish on a pad attached to a drill, working at low speeds, and moving continuously to avoid overheating the plastic. Repeat with the fine polish.

Now apply the specific ceramic coating for headlights that you purchased. It requires patience: do not skip any steps if you want to achieve the desired result.
