Hey Everyone!

I did a retro build a few months ago and after reassembling the headlights I discovered that there is ALOT of scratches an dust particles on the inside lense. Plus there is dust on the inside lens of the projector.

I have tried disassembling the headlights and wiping the lenses very diligent but to know end will it come out.



Im wondering if there is any way that I could buff out the imperfections........or will I have to buy all new headlights?

Does anyone have any advice or know and links that have instructions on how to do a retro build and minimize dust and imperfections.

Thank You

 

You should be able to buff the lens if you take it appart again, for the projector i don't know, maybe but just try to clean it gently. Should be good after that.

 

what would you use to buff it?

 

sure its not pitting on the outside from sand and such hitting it?

 

You could try buying some new lenses, small chance you'll find them but it might be worth a shot.

Also, would he be able to angle in a buffer? Seems like a hard angle to work with once the lens is off.

 

Buy a glass specific cleaning towel to remove the dust. You should be able to separate the lens of the projector and clean behind. It's clear you need to find a dust free area to do this in. Also hit the front of the lens with 2k grit then 2.5k grit and follow up with a headlight polishing kit

 

For the lens, go to your autozone or shop like that and buy a polishing kit for your headlights, you can do that using a good drill. For the projector, do like Ecaulk said, buy a specific cleaning towel :P
