    Route Causes of Defects/Swirls/Scratches

    I've been wondering if pollen is course enough to actually affect the paint.. It's definitely spring time here in the deep south (louisiana) with all our pine and oak trees blossoming and every day there is a nice healthy coat of pollen on EVERYTHING. I generally just rinse it off with the hose...

    Headlight Restoration

    I guess this is clear coat they are spraying? aka. getting them 'cleared' or it is some kind of media. Looks like overspray all over the rest of the car though. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m_fKxt0l13A&NR=1]YouTube - HEADLIGHTS RESTORATION[/video]

    Headlight Restoration

    Good step by step.. That lays it right out for me. I'll pickup some sandpaper next time I'm in town and post the outcome. Thanks! I've picked up some good tips from your site. Will be on the lookout for that vid. Anyone notice if the headlights cloud faster than before once you have sanded...

    Headlight Restoration

    I've seen a lot of articles here on the topic but I haven't seen a headlight with this specific issue. Doesn't look like general foggyness, it's more like a layer has deteriorated. There is a noticable ridge down to the damaged area when I feel it. What would your approach be to correcting this?

    How aggressive

    That is what I'm leaning towards. I was just concerned I may rather the compound or super intensive polish instead of the regular intensive polish that comes in the kit. Try and do this all in one step and I have some other vehicles in the family that could use a good compound. Thanks budman...

    How aggressive

    Heres a more direct question.. If your trying to spend less than $300 on a DA, pads, polish, glaze, sealer, and some 303 protectant. What would you buy to get the best bang (shine) for your hard earned bucks considering the above pictures and lack of proper paint care on the vehicle? I do have...

    How aggressive

    I am 99% sure it is clearcoated and the sun has taken its toll on it. I don't think all is lost for the majority of the paint but I'll have to live with that small faded rectangular spot. Last time I waxed it it did seem to bring back some of the color underneath it so polish may very well help...
