3M head light info
Kit Includes:
The 3M Headlight Lens Restoration System is
designed to restore clarity to headlight lenses
that have become yellowed, cloudy, or hazed over
time. By restoring clarity to the lens you
improve the performance of the headlight and
enhance the appearance of the vehicle. Headlight
lenses have either a hard surface layer or a UV
resistant coating on the outer surface of the
lens. Once a lens has been degraded by sun or UV
light and becomes yellowed or cloudy, it is
necessary to remove that yellowed layer in order
to restore clarity to the lens. The effort
required to refurbish headlight lenses will vary
greatly by vehicle manufacturer, year, make,
model, and headlight design. Large or extremely
hazed lenses may require more than one kit.
With the 3M Headlight Lens Restoration System, you will use a 1200-1600 rpm drill equipped with a backup pad and sanding discs to remove the yellowed layer from the headlight lens surface. A higher rpm drill could generate excessive heat and can cause damage to the headlight lens that is difficult to remove. A lower rpm drill does not work efficiently for this process. Two sanding steps will follow to refine or reduce the sand scratches that are made when removing the yellowed layer. Finally, 3M Headlight Lens Polish and a foam pad will remove the fine scratches and put the final clarity on the headlight lens.
Consider the condition of your headlight lenses:
