    need to restore your headlights?

    Well too bad.

    What i offer does NOT work for your e30 unless of course your lenses are plastic. So this of course is for your other rides that maybe developing the nasty hazy look on your headlights.

    I restore your headlights by starting from a 180grit sanding disk (320/600/1500) all the way up to a 3000grit polishing disk & finally a protective layer to finish. The end result produces a like new factory finish.
    All work is done directly on the vehicle. All painted parts will be masked of to protect from the sanding process.

    Virtually removes all pitting and restores up to 100% clarity.

    I'll post pics when available. If interested shoot me a text at (661) 886-3397

          Because glass is not porous or soft enough to manipulate it back to smooth and clear. Sanding/polishing requires a porous surface. There are glass polishing methods but none I've seen are very useful.

              You polish glass the same way, perhaps with a rougher grit to start and then finish with cerium oxide powder. There's a guy on r3v who did this with late model fogs.

                clear coat then a cut and polish works wonders too
