Polishing the Cloudy Headlamp Glass

Model: Volkswagen Bora MK 6 - Years 1998-2005
Part: Headlight

If the headlamp glass becomes cloudy, instead of replacing the entire unit, you can polish the glass. For this job, you will need a drill equipped with a sander. Attach special abrasive wheels to the tool, mounted on sponge pads. Activate the wheels with the appropriate abrasive paste, then patiently sand the surface of the glass until it is perfectly shiny and transparent. It is necessary to frequently replace the wheel and clean the glass with a cloth while working to remove dirt and glass residue.
