So here goes...
My first official customer since i started my part time detailing business.
Opel Astra HEADLIGHT RESTORATION
(I call it the Bright Eyes Package)
This is my starting point.. a very scary point.
My end results...
At this point i stood back and admired my work.
Top View
The next side
This side was abit of an issue because of the damage that was inside the headlight.
However my customer was very excited At the results.
My process
First the prep
I clayed the headlights using Meguiars Clay and GlossWorx speed detailer as lube.
Wipe down with Ipa
Then using 3m Painters (Blue) tape i protected all the painted surfaces.
My sanding process
I used 3m Automotive Water paper
I started with 1000grit, 1500grit then 2000grit.
Polishing process
On a drill i attached a backing plate with a compounding sponge pad.
My compound of choice was meguiars #85
I did 2 section passes on each headlight.
Protection
First i wiped the headlight with ipa.
I used Chemical guy's Jet Seal.
I applied 1 thin layer and allowed 30mins to flash the wiped off then applied a second coat while this coat of protection was flashing i wiped of any residue from the bumpers, bonnet and grill.
Thank you guys for taking the time to read and comments , suggestions or questions are welcomed.

as above, spend more time on the initials and the end result will be nothing short of spectacular
