I bought my Meguiars PlastX at Eneous 1 Utama last 2 years for RM 35.00

So far so good, works well on my plastic headlamps.

Give it a try

ahahaha!!! air kosong only meh?
so far record, this method can tahan up 2 6month.then wat u have to do is applying the same method, sapu with dot3/4 then it will be fine. ahahaha!!
your car also if u polish where can tahan, u have to re polish it again and again rite?
same also lor, if ure using expensive polish for headlamp, also where can tahan, u have to polish it again in the future what.

jst wonderin..how much is a bottle of dot 3/4 brake fluid?

 

[GT_AUTO]

dot 3 around rm5-6 while dot 4 is much more expensive.i use bendix synthetic
dot 4 brake fluid.cost me rm12 per bottle but i think it worth it as u don't
change ur brake fluid that frequent.why not go for synthetic.just my 2 cent.

What I do is this.
Take a scourer. It's those green colored scrubbing thing with rough surface.
Then prepare some washing powder, those powder that you use to wash your clothes.
Wet your headlamps. Then wet the scourer. Put a good amount of the washing powder on the scourer and put some water water to make it muddy. Then scrub your headlamps. It'll remove the yellowish thing on your headlamp. Don't expect a full glory, though. It just makes it look nice enough. hahaha
