When your headlight lenses become cloudy due to dust and dirt in the air in Nashville, the good news is that your headlights can be restored. Using a kit from Crest Honda, you can carefully remove these microscopic scratches and restore your headlights to full functionality. To help speed-up this process, some people want to use power tools, such as a buffer, to complete their headlight restoration. If you have this question when it comes time to restore your headlights, it's important to understand just what this process entails.
The compounds that are included in headlight restoration kits are essentially liquid sandpaper. They contain small amounts of grit that help to remove a microscopic layer of your headlight lenses to reveal an unscratched layer just below the surface. As effective as this is at restoring your headlights, it can have the opposite effect if it contacts any other part of your vehicle.
If the restoration compound comes into contact with your paint, for example, it will add scratches instead of removing them. To help avoid this outcome, its best if you apply and remove the compound manually so that there's a reduced risk of the compound coming into contact with your paint or any other surface on your vehicle.
