2nd Edge Posted October 5, 2022 Report Share Posted October 5, 2022 (edited) I bought a kit for removing the dreaded nasty headlight lense issue we all have had on various cars this is my wifes 2012 edge i have recently polished the plastic with plastic polish, and got allot of the crazing out of the lenses, but still was not happy, even tried alum wheel polish to not avail. still left crazing in the lenses and weird light at night i stumbled upon cerakote https://www.walmart.com/ip/CERAKOTE...e31PI-lA2T2IlzWKu14aAvDXEALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds i had read some reviews and figured hey 13 bucks i will give it try it took just over 2hrs to get all the shine off and scratches blended, but i am impressive . just need to see how long it lasts. directions say its fixed forever??/ we shall see prep is everything, i hand polished with the included 3000 and 4000wet sand paper for easily over hr to get the shine off. key is following the directions and cleaning and drying to see if all the shine is off and scrathces are gone, plus it has to be DRY DRY DRY before the ceramic coating is applied behold yes the before pics look good, but the scratches are there are as the crazing yes wear gloves because the stuff on the wipes is eye watering toxic pics below are after i polished them with alum wheel polish and then washed them real good before the start of the restoration Edited October 5, 2022 by 2nd Edge 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kkreit01 Posted November 4, 2022 Report Share Posted November 4, 2022 Nice. Let us know how long it lasts. I can always get my daughter's old Civic lenses clean, but keeping them that way is the challenge. I've used, PlastX, toothpaste, Ultimate Compound, etc. All of them work to make them "clear".
