Headlight Restoration on Honda

[coles_paint_correction]

These were bad! And my first go and doing preety good i'd say myself.
Process: Wetsand, 1500, 2000, 3000, and then compound 105 and machine polish 3m with rotary.
Any thoughts or comments to improve or to do would be appreciated.

It looks great. What did you use to seal the lens?

Thanks mike! I had some plastic lens restorer i think it was from meguiars. Also i topped them with collnite 845.
I should probably invest in a better sealant though.

The before picture is of the passenger side and the after is of the drivers side. Are you sure you didn't just install a new headlight on the drivers side? :joking:

Nice work!

Paint is one thing but you can't beat standing back and seeing one headlight trashed and one headlight transformed back to new!! Good job man
