I will re-finish and polish your shitty, sand blasted headlights for $60. My process is: Clean, Wet sanding at 320, 400, 600, 800, 1000, 1500, 2000, buff out with Plastix and polish. Drop the car off, or hang out for an hour or so. Heck you can send me the headlights if they are out of the car, or we can meet up. I mask off your paint with painters delicate tape, and will rinse off and quick wash the front end after my work is complete. I take pride in my work. Here are the 2004 Cadillac CTS headlights I did last week. I also Lamin-x smoked them, but the sun hasnt come out in a week, so I am waiting for those pics.

I’ll have to try that out… My S14 headlights get yellow and you can barely see through them… I use mothers aluminum polish on them and they look brand new when done ---

I dont sell [Laminx](http://www.lamin-x.com/) I just install it on the side. Yoru not raining on my shit show… dont worry about it. There are many ways to get the job done. BTW, 1500 grit and brake fluid wouldnt touch this guys headlights. It would be like rubbing a babys ass on these headlights. They were so blasted, I had to go down to 150 grit, to get the material flat. But yes, oxidized lenses will come out nice with your methods. but physically abused surfaces will not. Jeremy, Ill get at you. Its nice out, we need to get on the bikes too!
