I bought this kit to restore my headlights on my 1999 sls. I was looking to buy new headlights until i saw how much they cost. I bought this stuff on ebay. i DONT HAVE B4 PICS BECAUSE I DIDNT BELIEVE IT.its basically just 400 to 2000 grit sand paper wet sanding then buffing light with solution provided buy them also need a drill for the buffing process. very very happy with the out come of this product. will post pics. check ebay for cloudy headlight restorer. only guy with 100% feedback florida based company.

I couldn't find the one you described. If you can look up the ebay id or something, that would be great.

(www.headlightcare.com) (blue ice headlight lens restorer kit) THIS THREAD SOUNDS LIKE AN INFOMERCIAL, but its not this really works its not going to be a five minute job, I did it for almost 2hrs in the freezing cold, but what i got was worth freezing my a#% off. also follow the instructions keep dipping the sand paper in the water to get the loose sand off or you will do what i did.. scratched the lens had to do the whole process over again on pass. light. but the scratch buffed right out. this is for plastic lens only

Not sure that process/result lasts very long. Someone recommended clearcoat, but how much would that cost???

I had thought about clear coating them after I got rid of the yellow. Have you tried this before?

Is clearcoat a bandaid that is softer than the polycarbonate lens, and will it have to be removed to polish the lens yet again?

Clearcoat is the clear paint that is on the entire paint job of the car. It is very tough. I just have never sprayed it on headlights before.

Somebody told me to use Mothers to clean the headlights then use a Sealer Wax to finish the job.. Has anyone tried this?
