good call on the clearcoat though.


The lenses on my Maxima were fairly yellow/faded when I got it. Nothing a 3M wetsand kit can't fix. I did the 3 stage wet sand and polish and they could pass as new after only about 20 minutes work with a drill. Love the outcome!

I bought 2 kits and it looked nice and about 10 months later, after following the directions to the "t" they are fogging..Even put 2 coats of their "sealant" on it...

I emailed them and get a response as in, you are on your own...So I would tell other do not waste you money...Use a compound and seal as you want and save $40+..

hi all


I regularly drive my jeep in the woods. water in the headlights is normal. I drill a 1/16 hole at the very bottom of all lenses, usaully round on jeep, this lets water drain out. I also use big long Qtips to try and wipe out any remaing moisture. Then when I go on a trip i drive with the light on, usually the heat of the bulb, will dry out haze in day or two. Simple to do..........
