cleaning headlamps.

[fritz]

plastic can..my seg also plastic..very effective..immediately u can c the effect..erm..as wat hikaru mentioned..he say the light will become yellow soon after polised..i think it will become yellow but not so soon..at least can last for few months la..hehe! i polised it for almost 1month+..still ok..the autosol just rm9..i think can polish the light for more than 10 times..so it is worth also... :D :P

Did it on Plastic and glass lamps... works well for a minimal amount of cost and effort... Thumbs up for Autosol...

BTW, I tried first with the Autosol Plastic cleaner but it doesnt work well compared to the normal autosol.

Looks like you guys still don't get the point.

Rubbing with autosol only solve your problem in shortrun and it will turn yellow back very soon. You can see the immediate effect because it works like a sanding paper by sanding off the top layer of the plastic coating(which is yellowing). The plastic len will get yellowing sooner than before because the coating has been sanded off.

NEVER do that on plastic len headlights. There is one forumer here who did the same thing by rubbing with autosol on his headlights, but unfortunately the plastic len turns out very crispy when it contacts with autosol regularly and eventually cracked.

It'd be very effective for those glass headlamp like wira.
