Instructions for Headlight Polishing

Model: (Various brands) Lanos - Years 1997-2002
Part: Headlight

Due to sunlight exposure and car wash detergents, headlights tend to become cloudy and yellowed, compromising their ability to emit light. There are several techniques to polish them and restore their shine: one of these is polishing with toothpaste. This is a home remedy that works only for slight cloudiness; otherwise, you need to sand and polish with appropriate waxes. However, it is a quick, easy, and economical method that you can always try. Clean the headlight surface thoroughly and polish with toothpaste using circular motions, then rinse the surface with water.
