Repairing Dull Head lights [*]

[archemedes]

I did my lights with one of those kits at advance (someone opened it so they gave it to be for a buck) it has sand paper,polish, and some clear hard coating it helped some, but I did find all my cracks are on the inside of the capsule

just when you use the tooth pase, dont use the whitening or any thing special, just regular toothpase seems to be best, and I always use a soft cloth for application and gentile cold water w/ microfiber to remove when finished

Cool, you should do a write up on that, even if it is for cleaning a CD up. That would be good information to build from.

I noticed this also with my old set the cracks and pitting on the inside of the lens out side cleaned up not to bad and you seen them but the inside was just way to bad.. was thinking of opening them up
and checking out things from there..

Id like to see a good write up on that with pictures, the whole process and so forth. Nearly everyone I have heard of doing it has had some sort of sealing issues.

I used to use pepsodent for small stuff when I was in school

It works with alot of things for cleaning not sure
why but i used to clean all my rings with tooth paste also
and it makes them shine like new.
