Does anyone know of a cleaner that will take the foggyness and haze off headlights that i can find around my house, i dont want to buy a $30 dollar product and use it once.
Thanks

And one to take the "yellow" out of them as well. My GF has a Taurus and her headlight lenses are turning yellow and if you want to replace them you have to replace the whole headlight unit and I'm not gonna spend that kinda cash on a car like that.

Mothers mag polish.

do what i did to mine wet sand them then find some one with a buffer then buff them out the will look like new. easy fast cheap

I used miguires PlastX and they came out to a mirror shine. Would reccomend this product to all.

I love how you didn't just go to autozone and get the special stuff for it its called headlight restorations,in a black bottle with a blue cap, for 12.99.works

Thats what I was going to recommend, it's probably the best stuff-for the head light!

we use three stage wet sanding and finish it off with the polish. they look awesome when its finished.

i picked up that plastX stuff and it works pretty good. i only sat down and did it for about 30 minutes so you can still tell which one was fogged but there is a big difference.

im sure if i sat down and did it again it would look new again but im lazy. :D

Remember, the foggyness can also be on the inside of the lense. So unless you took it apart it and cleaned it. it will stay that way

Yeah, but that only happens if and when the housing has been cracked. There is a tube that allows heat to escape, so if there is a crack in the housing, it will allow water in and there won't be enough air pressure from the built up heat to push the condensation out.
So, if the housing isn't cracked or if the seal hasn't dried up completely, then that foggy look is just particles of dirt being blasted by the lens at whatever speed you drive. This and the elements and road grime eating the plastic.
I suggest never opening the housing unless you are modding the amber lens by removing it. If you do this, just be sure to reseal the housing and lens correctly and you shouldn't have issues with condensation on the inside.
