Plastx is the ultimate fix for foggy headlights
#16
For headlights that arent deeply cloudy or blemished, can you skip wetstanding?
I have very very slight hairline scratches in my headlights, besides that they are clear and w/out condensation. I've never wetstanded ever, so am somewhat hesitant to start. For headlights like mine, would rubbing compound+Plastix+plastic polish+wax be sufficient? Anyone try that method with good results w/out wetsanding?

Now sure if I would want to use wax though. I'm not a fan of wax on headlights. I prefer just to finish it off with plastix

These are not usually chain stores.

I've seen headlights that were considered "dead", but with wetsanding, you would think they were new!

My local auto parts store didnt have plastx but i got some other brand that I used. I also got the 1500 and 2000 sandpaper. Any advice on how long to sand for and any special directions on how to get better results?

Plastx worked pretty good on my girl's car as you can see on the before pic. her lights were in bad conditions. But some hazyness still there only did the outside with PC using a green sonus pad. New at this so not experienced with wet sanding, how difficult is it to wet sand? And sorry for the stupid questions but is it just sanding with sandpaper wet?
