Headlights get dim over time, but there are some DIY methods you can use to return them to their like-new condition. Here are some suggestions from Jim Falk Lincoln of Maui in Kahului for you to try.
Sandpaper To Polish
Various grades of sandpaper can be used to polish headlights clear again. However, if you don’t know what you are doing, it might not be wise to attempt this because poor results could leave you with only one solution; buying new headlights.
Insect Repellent
Some people have had good results using insect repellents that contain DEET. However, it can harm paint, so if you try polishing the cloudiness away, be very careful not to spray any of the insect repellent on your vehicle. Soak a rag with it instead.
Toothpaste
Although this method is not as effective on glass, it will do no harm to glass headlights. Use warm water to moisten a rag and apply some toothpaste. Use this rag to scrub the headlights and it might help you see more clearly at night.
If you don’t get the results you want from these DIY methods, you can always contact our service center for an appointment.
