If your vehicle’s headlights no longer shine as brightly as they once did, a little do-it-yourself cleaning and care are definitely in order. Restoring dull, discolored headlights to like-new appearance is easy, and we here at MINI of Burlington in Shelburne, VT are ready to tell you how it’s done.
As is the case with most tasks, it’s a good idea to do your homework to ensure that you achieve the desired results. However, whether you gather your own headlight cleaning supplies or purchase a pre-assembled kit, the steps are basically the same. Fine sandpaper is used to clear away any deposits from the headlight covers. Glass cleaner or similar fluid may also be employed for additional cleaning power.
The headlight covers should then be buffed with a microfiber towel and protected with thin coatings of wax to prevent the film and discoloration from returning later on.
