Hey guys, here is a video that shows you how we restore headlight and make them like new. NEVER EVER CLEAR COAT your headlights. You might damage the plastic and there is no way to fix it. Our method works great and restores them permanently. If you apply sealant wax every 6 months they will stay shiny like new all the time. Improve the appearance of your car and visibility at night as well. Clean, shiny headlights perform great at night.
We used 3M Perfect-it Series Rubbing Compound
3M Perfect-it Series Machine Polish
Sealer by Chemical Guys
You will also need sandpaper. Use good quality sandpaper like 3M or Gator.
3M Polishing pad.

This guy has some really DECENT vids....no B..L S...T, just good info, STRAIGHT to the point and don't have to suffer through some guy thinking he is A MOVIE STAR. Well done.
Great instruction guys, no bullshit, just crystal clear and fast without bragging. Thank you!
Good demo. I appreciate it. I'll be getting to that when it warms up.
Thanks for the video. I just did mine on my CLK. I didn't have a
power polisher available. I just used
1) wet sandpaper 1200
2) Halfords rubbing compound
3) T-Cut
4) Autoglym Fast Glass
Took about an hour or so. Huge improvement and they are mostly now very clear and smooth. There is a touch of misting inside the headlamp covers here and there but not as much a I thought there was before I started.
Great video, I actually owned one of these Mercs new in 2004
Looks amazing! Great job!!
Супеер. Гледал съм всичките за мл w163. Респект
this is great, i have same problem on my merc and need to fix it. this is by far the best ive seen so far. the only problem is, unless you're a car detailing/cleaning company it can be more expensive than buying the lenses. I like doing everything myself, but i dont have a polish buffer. The M3 polish in the shop is 78 euros for the small bottle, (and thats just one of the polishes you use. Thats the same price as new light lenses. If i could buy a small amount of the polish needed it would be cheaper, but the smallest is 78 euros.
Just did this on my 1999 E320. Although I used novus heavy scratch remover compound and novus fine scratch remover. And generic sandpaper (1200 and 2000 grit) I got in an assortment from Amazon. Very similar results in minimal time.
great video guys !! Thank you !!
Great video! Nice to see how it's done the RIGHT way, not the toothpaste way! What are the number codes for 3M Perfect-it compound and polish that you use? Thanks, keep up the good work. Leslie
muito bom di mais parabéns
Great job guys!! Thank you.
Looks awesome! Gonna try this out when I have the time 👍
This is very satisfying to watch.
Best video on TH-cam for headlight lense restoration
Always good stuff my brother ! Awesome 👏
Well done, I would like to suggest 303 Maring protectant for a final step it will provide UV protection. I buy it on amazon and it will make the lens so clear it will look like you removed the lens all together. I have done many headlights and it is funny to see the look on the customers face when their head lights are so cleac. I have had many say i thought you broke off the plastic they are so clear.
Will do.
Very Helpful Guys, Thank you
Thank you was very informative and helpful
Super Video, hervorragend erklärt.
Schöne Grüße aus Bayern
Great great video ...nice job ...very professional .
I saw someone spraying some clear coat what was that they could be applying?
Nice work
PHENOMENAL PHENOMENAL
Thank youuuu
Güzel iş
Farlariniz plastik mi cam mi
Benim aracım 2001 model C220 cdi farlar cam
Bu yöntem camda da işe yarar mi ?
Блестящий!
brilliant !! Thanks
Hey great video! What happens if you have clear coat on them already? Can you sand it down with 600 or 800 grit sand paper?
Bekim Krasniqi sand with 400 grit first and work your way up to 3000. i do 400 1000 2000 3000
sand it back to plastic with 400 than go 600 800 1000 1200 1500 1800 2000 2500 3000 wet,, make sure that before you go to next papper you sand out all scratches from one before,, also if you have just orange peel you can polish that out and just sand with 1000 2000 range first
My brother is trying to wrap his a chrome color is that a good idea?
deveria haver tradução para portugues
Hi.I have request.Can you make video how to change the door in clk 208 and how to shift all components to another door???Please.
Wow 😲
Great work
Super work👍
Pon los productos. Para. Ver. Realmente. Los. Nombres y comprarlo. Gracias. Muy. Buenas informaciones. Para. Mantenimiento. Pues pagarlo es carísimo
Can we use ceramic coating instead of sealant ?
Wow, nice
Tq
Good video,but one think,where I can buy these productsfor polishing,for example living in a different country I mean not in UK-Spain
Well, technically?? What you're "Removing" is the Thin UV Film laminate.
That is indeed what turns cloudy or yellow.
But without it?? your lenses will simply re-yellow again...only quicker.
yeah thats why you need to re apply the UV protect
Good to see why folk leave it into a workshop for this to be done. By the time you buy all the stuff you use, (about £200) it's not worth it for a one off DIY job even though it looks easy!
good work
Yes this the right way after sanding, then machine buff polish. I sometimes hand buff because I don't have the tool. Very good video. Thanks
سلو
Is this applicable to plastic (non glass) headlights as well?
These are plastic headlights.
Glass Headlights dont get dull and discolored in the first place.
You did not let TH-cam watcher have the link to buy those chemicals To buffing and coat protection??? Thanks man !!!
豪快だな
I think the plastic covering my one headlight has come off. It looked bubbled and pieces of it came off. I have to get new headlights don't I. :(
quero ver fazer isso no farol gol fiesta prisma strada
omg! please! if you do that even 100 times per day, you have to tape it all aroud the headlight...
Sir Dlight huh?
he's mean that , even if he had much expirience with that he should protect , body around the headlight's to not damage it ...
@@kamilSackler How would he damage it?
please add the list of products needed in a separate screen that lasts at least 45 seconds so we have time to copy it.
българи ли сте?
Tape up your lenses so your not eating paint away like this example.
You gotta keep polishing and and sanding every 6 months. If you use a 2k clear coat you won't have any issues
clear coate reacts after sometime because of the heat produced by the bulb ..this is the best way

hi bro mercedes amg brake light switch is were not with brake pedal can you help me think you very much
Where are you based , can you do my car ? are you in UK ??
Ist einfach
nice job buddy
Did he say 55 mins with 1200 grit 😯
3 to 5 minutes
My W-202 are in glass ,,,,,no problem
Use soapy water
Is not more simply with COLGATE?
You think work with COLGATE?
You vant great better results you trie sensodine toothpaste! It is gud for sensitive tith so it is gud for delicate head light plus it is better if it has whitening because it vill whiten headlight too.
6:10 he says it looks like the car is 10 years older
the car came out in 2005 so it was actually 11 years older when the video was posted lmao
So what?
Is nice restoration job, but the sealer and wax will only last so long. To really make it last will have to put a clearcoat paint on it to long term keep the UV rays out, unless you want to clean, wax and seal every 2 weeks.
Not true! I simply used a coating of 'Mer' car wax buffed in, and it easily lasts 6 months or so!
des marieur a chargé
This HEADLIGHTS is a plastic o Glass?
My question exactly. I wonder if this works on plastic lights like my Toyota.
This is serious.. Try toothpaste.. Cheap & it works... I've used it..
I tried that shit too crazy how it worked
Slum Dawgg I tried it but I’m an idiot, do I sans first?
Bulgarian?
Mandalorian.
Gypsy?
Разводка.
Mines just will not get crystal clear. I did them like 3 times lol. Annoying
Got headlights? 🧐
thankyou russian
Může mi někdo poradit zničeho nic mi začal blikat levý xenon
If your car older Mercedes check ballast it is under the headlight frame ,take of left front wheel take out a plastic wheel cover under the fender and you reach the head light frame and a ballast bolted to a bottom on the headlight frame.Go to a salvage yard and buy other ,and change!
WD - 40.
In Deutschland nicht erlaubt
und wie lange hält das an bis es wieder verblasst..? Ich würde lieber die Streuscheiben gegen eine neue austauschen. Kostet auch nicht die Welt und "Tüv gerecht" ist es auch.
your headlight is restored and your fender will rust nicely around the headlights if you do it that way. otherwise, USE TAPE!
just think people these are real expensive cars you buy got the same old cheap ass headlights as a cheapest automobile out there let that sink in
👍👌😋
Какой ломавой акцент
If you just put the TOOTHPASTE over the lenses and use the little wet small towel to rub a little in circular motion, the lenses will be clear like crystal ... I saw most mechanics or shops doing the way you do but it is not necessary and sometimes can damage the lenses .... Do the other way, you will see the result ....
🤣🤣🤣
Kann beser 🤣
Du kannst garnichts
I MET MY NEW GIRLFRIEND AT AT A TRAVEL AGENCY, she was looking for a holiday and
I was the last resort 😏
Kann das nicht jemand anderes moderieren? Diese schreckliche Aussprache! Wie er das "R" ausspricht... Muss den ton ausstellen.
..er kommt aus der Tschechei...also der Grunt ist,warum er so lustig erzählt , dass die Sprache (englisch ) 😉 nicht seine Mutter Sprache ist. Sorry, wenn meine Deutsche Sprache gleich schlimm ist...mach`s gut
You don’t know how to restore headlight.
