I saw this one advertised for a while, always thought it looked good in the pics. Welcome along :wave:

I did my headlight myself using the meguiras kit, mine were not that bad though.

I just restored my headlights with the Holt's kit it took about an hour to do and certainly made a vast improvement. I left mine on the car and masked around them. I would recommend covering as much of the car as possible it does make a mess.

Cheers all.
I'm looking forward to doing all the little jobs and in the process of writing a list.

I saw a YouTube video where they used Mother's Aluminium polish and a buffer which seemed to work really well on headlights.

Then you just need to seal them after.

Has anyone tried this?

Looks lovely. Re the headlights the orbital buffer is the important bit, most polishes will do the job provided they're sufficiently abrasive.
