@@daniel-wf4fl I used the streetwise headlight restoration kit from Halfords. I would though suggest this, use the kit as directed, but don't use the sanding pads on a drill, use them by hand for a better result. A drill spins / rotates, for the best results, use the pads. but, use them left to right across the light on the first pass, then, up and down. Do this with each grit from harshest to to smoothest. The results are amazing, and, honestly, it takes no time at all. Just keep the light and sanding discs wet at all times while you use them.

You need to spray the finished item with a hard clear varnish such as Rustins two part floor polish. It’s super clear, hard and resists UV. Most new headlight lenses are coated with clear at manufacture but it erodes away during use.

Baking soda and vinegar work as well as any kit I've ever tried. Also, you should use a UV protectant clear coat after doing this or lens will be yellow again within a year.
I still believe the best method is wet sanding with 500 grit til even and smooth and all old clearcoat is removed then wet sand with 800 grit and then wet sand with 3000 grit polish pad and apply a uv protectant coating comes out perfect every time
very well said but better not use so rought grit, go with lighter. I usually use 1500, 2000, 2500, 3000 grit (wet sanding) and after a good washing of the area, a polishing pad with a drill and is like new!
I had a Chrysler mini van I used for work that developed bad head light clouding. I tried a few different things including a store bought named brand kit. I had to do your method with 500 grit on the drill sanding tool that came with the store kit. It was the only thing that worked. If you have heavy fogging your way is 100% spot on, including the UV protectant. If you don't add the UV protectant the fogging will come back in a few months.
@@051901jcmost any ware, maybe hardware or even your local grocery. It's a milky white liquid paste , comes in a can last I seen. Works great on brass also.
As a detailer , it all depends on how long the plastic has been exposed to UV rays and how deep the damage is below the surface of the lens ..You can only go so deep and after that it’s never the same !!
But as a detailer, as you and I are, It depends on what technic you use for this process.If you use this remedy? It may work for you.But my process is to wetsand the lens with 1200, 1500 ,2000 sand paper ,depending on the degree of oxidation, then buff with a buffer after compounding with heavy cutting compound,Clean and spray with a can of Clearcoat from auto paint store and waLa perfection ,Headlights will be like brand new.
@@katrinameckler2473 its not about how long. Its how deep. Your going to sand with the roughest grit first until all oxidation has been sanded off. Each grit after that is just to take the scratches of the previous out.. its because its allot easier to polish out 2000 grit scratches then it is to polish 1200 grit scratches
Carrots are packed full of Vitamin A, in the form of beta carotene, so are good for the health of our eyes but contrary to popular belief carrots don't help you see in the dark. This urban myth stems from WWII where it was used as a cover story for the fact that the allies had developed a working radar system helping them finding targets at night.
As soon as it dries it's going to haze. Just taking the yellow off isn't going to fix it. Also, once you clear it, you have to wax and buff it with a UV protective wax like finish 2001 (orange bottle) or it will get even worse than before. Here in Florida this is common. I recommend wet sanding them first the. Use a headlight restorer kit from the auto parts store (the kind that go on a cordless drill and do it the right way.
I agree this mix is like a bad sand paper, it will oxides twice as fast you open,the fibers in the plastic, you can sand it down put on som polish ore ceramic product, when polis is gone the plastic caps vi be worse, by a new ones the are super cheap. That’s the only way.
As an auto detailer, the best fix for this is to have them wet sanded with wet or dry 1,000 grit then hitting them with automotive clear coat they'll never go dull again.
Definetlt the better method. Although the clear coat flakes off 3 years later. Still thats the best method too. And you can tint the clear with black and spray the tailights for a nice tinted look.
4000 grit sandpaper then 5000 grit sandpaper, make sure to use soapy water on the sandpaper and headlight, dont go in circles go in up and down strokes then side to side, after you can put some ceramic coating, make sure it's one with UV protection, put two coats let first dry for a day then come back tomorrow and do a second, will last for years :)
Lmao 4k and above is unnecessary a good 3m compound will take out anything 2k or over with a pass or 2 with ease. Then just hit it with a nice coat of tech wax or ceramic coat.
That’s a lot of work! Buy a $10 3” foam drill pad set and $5 container of Mothers Aluminum Wheel Polish and with very little effort you can make both headlights look new in 15 minutes. That’s what I did and then I apply a coating of Meguires Gold Class Liquid Wax every other car wash (5 minutes tops) and they look great after 2 years.
I also found that using the cleaner called the Pink Stuff and a large cellulose sponge does a great job buffing out the haze. Just rinse off the headlamps with plain water when done. After researching headlamp sealers, I went with a recommendation from CNET called Cerakote. I liked that there was no need for buffing wheels, etc. TH-cam has links for it and how to apply the product, so I won't list it here. I used it on my 2014 Toyota Sequoia and loved the results.
That looks very good! Only one of my headlights is yellowish and foggy, I don't know why the other looks so much cleaner. I'll definitely try this out, thanks!
Boy, what the name of God are you doing??? I've been detailing cars 20 years, I've never seen no crap like this! I have a three-step process to do this and the results are spot on every time! I've never seen nothing like this before!
@@JSki-jn5vj I have a two step process. 1. use mothers mag and aluminum polish to clean off the yellow (using a drill with a cleaning wheel will speed things up) wipe off residue. 2. apply a quality car wax and buff off. done.
*This video presents an effective method that can be widely employed, rendering it highly advantageous. The utilization of commonplace household items in this method also makes it economically feasible, thus making it a viable option for most individuals. Additionally, the method has yielded promising outcomes, thereby further adding to its merit.*
I was recommended to use 3M plastic polish but couldn’t find it anywhere. Did find Meguiar’s PlastX. A little elbow grease and a soft cloth, about maybe ten minutes per headlight. Beautiful.
Headlight polishing is a hobby of mine and I do it for friends (I don't take money ). I think I can recognize headlights oxidized by the weather. This looks like an artfully applied layer of something. If you look closely you can see in some places how the yellow stuff had a tendency to run off. My advice is : don't experiment and buy some headlight polishing kit. Even the basic ones which are not expensive and have guaranteed results. This on the video is more of a pass/fail lottery.
You can buy a can of "Off" bug repellent and do the same thing. It might take several applications but it works. Make sure you purchase the one in the green can.
@Peter Cutting Not really... see? The problem is It's an OEM coating that you have to remove hence the sanding. This will cost you hundreds of dollars in new headlights
I just did both of my (unwarrantable) car lenses with warm water and some JIFF oven cleaner paste, 5 minutes total (put some effort into it) rinsed off with the hose then dried with a cotton cloth, now they're like new 😁 Ps: I also have a can of Clear coat paint so may give it a couple of coats, (mask them off first so you don't get over spray) first wait a good hr for them to dry completely or it may bubble, (also wait for the first application to dry before applying the second one then leave for rest of the day to harden before next car wash).
The ONLY way to fix headlights is to remove the oxidized layer, smooth the surface with wet sand paper or buffing compound safe on plastic and THEN you MUST protect the plastic with a UV blocker. I had success with UV blocking clear coat spray paint.
Nice result. How long does the process take? (I see the title says five minutes but in the video it says 20 minutes using the mixture on the "scruffy" side of the dish washing sponge.)
I've tried all of these DIY methods for cleaning yellowed headlights and I only found 1 method that works and it's insect spray , spray it on let it soak in for 30 seconds or so and wipe it off with paper towels ! You won't be disappointed !
Before you buy all these supplies and make a big mess, you should just buy a headlight restore kit. Comes with everything you need, makes far less of a mess and will actually leave a perfectly clear finish unlike these sub par results in the video. The kits also have a form of clear coat to apply after to keep the perfect finish for around a year. In those last shots it basically looks like someone ran a piece of harsh sandpaper over an otherwise decent looking headlight. If I brought my faded headlights to a shop and they gave them back to me looking like this I'd demand my money back.
I bought the kit and it went back to yellow in a few months. There were some guys who ran a business doing this and they sanded them down a lot more than what you can do with the kit. Best was is probably aftermarket replacements or buying your own sand paper and polish compound
@@jpmking9635 yeah I guess it depends how bad off the lights are. I did a set of f150 lights that were pretty rough and they were still clear when I sold it about a year later. But I did several coats of the “clear coat” stuff at the end. It only calls for one but I figured more couldn’t hurt.
Or spend $20 on a kit that will come with protection for the plastic so it doesn't fade so quickly. You can apply a 2k clear coat to the plastic after polishing and it will last years.
What role does each ingredient serve? How long does it last? I used a Sylvania kit that held up for two years. It came with a protective coating to use, but I think the coating just filled up the fine sanding at the end.
The most important thing is to put protection layer, otherwise soon plastic degrades. But still you can clean it again, with whatever suitable paste you find.
A can of mosquito spray repellent (Backwoods Off) and a soft cloth works in 2minutes !👍 Spray on, wipe off. Or mix a cup of water, vinegar, lime juice, toothpaste, with a spoon of rubbing alcohol. Sponge it off 👍
This only works if all the UV damage is at the surface. More often than not, with older units, the UV damage goes the entire depth of the lens material, in which case there is no cleaning it. It doesn't hurt to try... but chances are, you might as well make friends with the idea that you'll have to purchase a new set of headlight units.

Watch the very beginning of this video very very closely when he shows the supposedly sun faded light, and you can see that the yellow coat is something he most likely applied himself.
I once used packing tape to temp repair a broken lens. The lens started out faded and fogged but after applying the tape I noticed everywhere the tape made contact, the lens had become perfectly clear, as if it was brand new..
I am inexperienced and although I looked at several videos and tried a couple of methods, I gave up. I'm a 62 year old woman and the weather conditions in the South can be brutal in the summer. The car dealership did mine and within 45 minutes they looked new and have stayed looking good for nearly 3 years. It was worth the $150.
@@welierdugan Nope. We need headlights at night if you don't want us to "accidentally" run over your butt in the cross walk. LOL @teresaphillips I'm 64 yo old woman, also in the South. Last week I had to get my car inspected and the kid said he could restore my headlights for $85 with a 1 year warranty. I did some googling and youtube-ing and decided to try just 1 to 1 baking soda and water solution. I rubbed it on with the green side of a kitchen sponge, let it set 3 minutes. As I rubbed it in, I saw the yellow coming off. This is a 2008 car. The lights have never been cleaned, even though we bought a restoration kit too many years ago to count. Never used it. I got it out today, intending to use it but wanted to try Simple and Easy method first so I could tell if it worked or not. I used the sponge over it for a couple off minutes, using circular motions. I rinsed it off. Beautiful. I know you have to use a clear coat over it. I used clear car wax on one light and 3 coats of Armor-all over the other light. I will give it a few days or weeks to see which one works better. If I have any issues, I'll come back and do THIS method.
Him: a little of this a little of that... Me: I'll just continue to use mosquito repellent spray. You know what else is that spong good for if you have a dark neck or dark pits or dark inner thighs scrub with the green side of the spong it'll scratch off all the dead skin cells that are making your areas look dark.

The trick isn't cleaning them. He could have done that with toothpaste only. Challenge is it will go yellow again within a day or two. You need to spray it with a UV coating afterwards to protect it. CRC aqua armour works well.
Or you could just use Maguires high cutting compound then a reg polishing compound. Then to protect it just use a polish that you use on your cars finish. There you go! I just use polishing pads and microfiber cloths. No buffer needed. But you can if you want? Might get better results. I have a 2003 Celica GT that sits out all the time. Now I just use polish to maintain it
Химия явно "левая". Мыло - щелочь, лимонный сок - кислота. Сода - соль. При реагировании щелочи и кислоты остается тоже соль. Для "ремонта" фары нам нужно выполнить 2 операции: 1. Убрать желтый цвет. Это окислившееся оргстекло 2. Отполировать. Окислы убирают (обычно) мягкой щелочью. Например хозяйственным мылом. Автор взял мыло для рук, где процент самого мыла невысок. Ну, а главное, при полировке, верхний окисленный слой и так снимается. Использование зубной пасты вместо специализированных паст - такое себе решение.
All you need is Turtle Wax "Chrome Cleaner & Polish" (green bottle) and some elbow grease. Did both mine in about a half hour. Just about all of these suggestions on what to use to clean them, is exactly what is turning the lenses yellow. Built up wax baked on.👍
Great idea, but it yellows again after exposure to sunlight, without protective coating made for headlights and originally applied to new vehicles in factory.
exactly you need to spray with a uv clear coat, or buy a head light resto kit that comes with the uv coat. The kit always works out to be cheaper as comes with everything you need to do a job that will last 5yrs not a few weeks using ya missus cooking n cleaning stuff

I don't think it's right to speak of faded headlights as if they're all the same and all respond to the same solutions. WD40 did not work for me at all, and the solution in this video, although I haven't tried it, I'm pretty sure could not work on my lights. The reason why he adds tooth paste is silly: because of the slightly abrasive particles in the paste, and he uses the abrasive side of the sponge to apply it. Well, abrasiveness is what is required to do the job, but if you have a look at how professionals do this, you'll quickly realize that it's not even 10% of the abrasiveness needed to get the job done in most cases. Professionals use various grits of sandpaper in this process beginning with one of the roughest and ending with one of the finest, and they do not do it by hand, as this would take a whole day.

it's a scam
I caught the baking time, but I didn’t see the temperature…
As a detailer , it all depends on how long the plastic has been exposed to UV rays and how deep the damage is below the surface of the lens ..You can only go so deep and after that it’s never the same !!
But as a detailer, as you and I are, It depends on what technic you use for this process.If you use this remedy? It may work for you.But my process is to wetsand the lens with 1200, 1500 ,2000 sand paper ,depending on the degree of oxidation, then buff with a buffer after compounding with heavy cutting compound,Clean and spray with a can of Clearcoat from auto paint store and waLa perfection ,Headlights will be like brand new.
I read that "as a dealer" and thought yeah, WD40 and let the customer worry about it a week from now :)
@@katrinameckler2473 its not about how long. Its how deep. Your going to sand with the roughest grit first until all oxidation has been sanded off. Each grit after that is just to take the scratches of the previous out.. its because its allot easier to polish out 2000 grit scratches then it is to polish 1200 grit scratches

You can use carrot juice too.This will help you see , if you do a lot of night time driving.
Ok, but do I put it on my headlights... or drink it?
@@tikdoph Yes
Carrots are packed full of Vitamin A, in the form of beta carotene, so are good for the health of our eyes but contrary to popular belief carrots don't help you see in the dark. This urban myth stems from WWII where it was used as a cover story for the fact that the allies had developed a working radar system helping them finding targets at night.
Ever since I started drinking a quart of carrot juice a day, I no longer need to use my headlights.
@@AFTER_MIDNITEunfortunately, the side effects .
The lines in your wife's face are more prominent..
As soon as it dries it's going to haze. Just taking the yellow off isn't going to fix it.
Also, once you clear it, you have to wax and buff it with a UV protective wax like finish 2001 (orange bottle) or it will get even worse than before. Here in Florida this is common. I recommend wet sanding them first the. Use a headlight restorer kit from the auto parts store (the kind that go on a cordless drill and do it the right way.
I agree this mix is like a bad sand paper, it will oxides twice as fast you open,the fibers in the plastic, you can sand it down put on som polish ore ceramic product, when polis is gone the plastic caps vi be worse, by a new ones the are super cheap. That’s the only way.

As an auto detailer, the best fix for this is to have them wet sanded with wet or dry 1,000 grit then hitting them with automotive clear coat they'll never go dull again.
Not true the clear coat doesn't last forever.
Definetlt the better method. Although the clear coat flakes off 3 years later. Still thats the best method too. And you can tint the clear with black and spray the tailights for a nice tinted look.

Highly Underrated Video! NO Toxic Chemicals and Easy to do! Bravo and Thank You! 👍👏👏👏
4000 grit sandpaper then 5000 grit sandpaper, make sure to use soapy water on the sandpaper and headlight, dont go in circles go in up and down strokes then side to side, after you can put some ceramic coating, make sure it's one with UV protection, put two coats let first dry for a day then come back tomorrow and do a second, will last for years :)
and its about as quick and cheap as this actually but a lot better.

I also found that using the cleaner called the Pink Stuff and a large cellulose sponge does a great job buffing out the haze. Just rinse off the headlamps with plain water when done.
After researching headlamp sealers, I went with a recommendation from CNET called Cerakote. I liked that there was no need for buffing wheels, etc. TH-cam has links for it and how to apply the product, so I won't list it here. I used it on my 2014 Toyota Sequoia and loved the results.

I used Mothers Mag Aluminum Polish, works great
I was recommended to use 3M plastic polish but couldn’t find it anywhere. Did find Meguiar’s PlastX. A little elbow grease and a soft cloth, about maybe ten minutes per headlight. Beautiful.
Headlight polishing is a hobby of mine and I do it for friends (I don't take money ). I think I can recognize headlights oxidized by the weather. This looks like an artfully applied layer of something. If you look closely you can see in some places how the yellow stuff had a tendency to run off. My advice is : don't experiment and buy some headlight polishing kit. Even the basic ones which are not expensive and have guaranteed results. This on the video is more of a pass/fail lottery.
That's what I was thinking. It looks like some yellow crap was applied to it. It doesn't look like actual oxidation
do you have a video on restoring them? I'd love to see how you do it, thanks!

@@Terry-pm7fw Yeah but it won’t have to worry about mosquito bites.
And does this work for a few weeks, like most of the "clever" suggestions on here ?
@Peter Cutting Not really... see? The problem is It's an OEM coating that you have to remove hence the sanding. This will cost you hundreds of dollars in new headlights
would toothpaste from 99c Store work?
I just did both of my (unwarrantable) car lenses with warm water and some JIFF oven cleaner paste, 5 minutes total (put some effort into it) rinsed off with the hose then dried with a cotton cloth, now they're like new 😁 Ps: I also have a can of Clear coat paint so may give it a couple of coats, (mask them off first so you don't get over spray) first wait a good hr for them to dry completely or it may bubble, (also wait for the first application to dry before applying the second one then leave for rest of the day to harden before next car wash).
Make sure you use a clear coat that has UV inhibitors or it's not going to help at all.
@@csorrowsOr better just use Chemical Guys UV headlight dressing. 2 minutes.
The ONLY way to fix headlights is to remove the oxidized layer, smooth the surface with wet sand paper or buffing compound safe on plastic and THEN you MUST protect the plastic with a UV blocker. I had success with UV blocking clear coat spray paint.
Nice result. How long does the process take?

I've tried all of these DIY methods for cleaning yellowed headlights and I only found 1 method that works and it's insect spray , spray it on let it soak in for 30 seconds or so and wipe it off with paper towels ! You won't be disappointed !
Before you buy all these supplies and make a big mess, you should just buy a headlight restore kit. Comes with everything you need, makes far less of a mess and will actually leave a perfectly clear finish unlike these sub par results in the video. The kits also have a form of clear coat to apply after to keep the perfect finish for around a year. In those last shots it basically looks like someone ran a piece of harsh sandpaper over an otherwise decent looking headlight. If I brought my faded headlights to a shop and they gave them back to me looking like this I'd demand my money back.
Does it come with a lemon? Lol
Agree 100%!
I bought the kit and it went back to yellow in a few months. There were some guys who ran a business doing this and they sanded them down a lot more than what you can do with the kit. Best was is probably aftermarket replacements or buying your own sand paper and polish compound
@@jpmking9635 yeah I guess it depends how bad off the lights are. I did a set of f150 lights that were pretty rough and they were still clear when I sold it about a year later. But I did several coats of the “clear coat” stuff at the end. It only calls for one but I figured more couldn’t hurt.
Or use only anti UV bulbs.
Or spend $20 on a kit that will come with protection for the plastic so it doesn't fade so quickly. You can apply a 2k clear coat to the plastic after polishing and it will last years.
What role does each ingredient serve? How long does it last?
I used a Sylvania kit that held up for two years. It came with a protective coating to use, but I think the coating just filled up the fine sanding at the end.
На один месяц хвтит. И это можно сделать универсальной полиролью для кузова, не разводить самодельную бодягу.
The most important thing is to put protection layer, otherwise soon plastic degrades. But still you can clean it again, with whatever suitable paste you find.
This is exactly what i'd like to say....That's a garbage..
Love all these crazy recipes for cleaning. Bet toothpaste on its own would also work. 😆

This only works if all the UV damage is at the surface.
More often than not, with older units, the UV damage goes the entire depth of the lens material, in which case there is no cleaning it.
It doesn't hurt to try... but chances are, you might as well make friends with the idea that you'll have to purchase a new set of headlight units.
Or sand it down then polish with a machine.

@teresaphillips I'm 64 yo old woman, also in the South. Last week I had to get my car inspected and the kid said he could restore my headlights for $85 with a 1 year warranty. I did some googling and youtube-ing and decided to try just 1 to 1 baking soda and water solution. I rubbed it on with the green side of a kitchen sponge, let it set 3 minutes. As I rubbed it in, I saw the yellow coming off. This is a 2008 car. The lights have never been cleaned, even though we bought a restoration kit too many years ago to count. Never used it. I got it out today, intending to use it but wanted to try Simple and Easy method first so I could tell if it worked or not.
I used the sponge over it for a couple off minutes, using circular motions. I rinsed it off. Beautiful. I know you have to use a clear coat over it. I used clear car wax on one light and 3 coats of Armor-all over the other light. I will give it a few days or weeks to see which one works better.
If I have any issues, I'll come back and do THIS method.

I first learned about the wd40 trick years ago from a crack head who fixed cars in the parking lot of autozone lol.
I don't think it's right to speak of faded headlights as if they're all the same and all respond to the same solutions. WD40 did not work for me at all, and the solution in this video, although I haven't tried it, I'm pretty sure could not work on my lights. The reason why he adds tooth paste is silly: because of the slightly abrasive particles in the paste, and he uses the abrasive side of the sponge to apply it. Well, abrasiveness is what is required to do the job, but if you have a look at how professionals do this, you'll quickly realize that it's not even 10% of the abrasiveness needed to get the job done in most cases. Professionals use various grits of sandpaper in this process beginning with one of the roughest and ending with one of the finest, and they do not do it by hand, as this would take a whole day.
