CLEANING POLYCARBONATE HEADLIGHTS

[oldrev]

some of you like myself own 5 year old New Hilux's .
the other day i was picking up some new driving light protectors from the local shop when i was introduced to a new Meguires polish for clear plastics. ( PLASTIC X )
i just cleaned my lights which had become yellowy and old looking and i'm wrapped with the result.
highly recommended product

Hi Ken,

Thanks for the post. Luckily my 2006 model has only done a tad over 50k and spends a lot of time under cover so the light covers are still quite clear and clean. I'll keep that in the memory bank for the future.

Cheers,

CJ

Hi guys,
The other option for any on a tight budget is to use "Brasso".
I've used the Meguires product as well, but found "Brasso" works equally as good at a fraction of the price and young guys will probably find their mum already has some in a cupboard...

another one to add to the list is colgate total 12hour protect

saw it on youtube so i thought id give it a go and it actually helped alot. my drivers side one you couldnt even see in and its cleared it right up. not crystal clear but A LOT better

plastic x works a treat with a orbital buffer - use it on my 99 silvia i try to do it periodically to prevent me having to sand back a layer and polish like i have had to with the silvia ><

2000 wet and dry and then spray with a can of clear. Problem solved for at least a year

Medium grit buffing compound works awesome as well

My daughters old lancer was pretty bad, used fine wet and dry then Stepptoes fibreglass extra cut polish from BCF (use it on my van). Worked brilliant. Just do small spots at a time repeat a few times where needed.
