| Hey guys.
im off work today and im at home, bored.
Whats a good and easy way of cleaning headlights that does not involve taking off my
front bumper and baking my headlights and blah blah blah.
Like i heard this stuff called plastex or something, from walmart did a good job.
anyone have any ideas.
i dont care if it only lasts a week.
thanks. | |

| Plastex by Mcquires is good stuff. I took the housing off my truck... cleaned the inside with simple green then wax the outside with plastex. Like new. Once in a while i'll re-polish them with the wax to keep'm glossy looking. But yeah its worth the 7-8 dollars. | |

| Yeah, i have heard good things about that stuff. But the only stuff that i have ever used is the reflecticoat stuff that comes in that kit. Puts a new clear coat on the headlights since that is what ends up dulling out. | |

| get some fine grit sand paper and some clear coat. sand them down tell they start to clear up then clear coat them. Or you could do like Brown and use toothpaste... he said it works, but Ive never tried that. | |
