Sully's Detailing: CTS Headlight Restoration and Wax - 11-16-2009, 10:24 AM

South Florida Headlight Restoration!!

This was one of my Clients parents car. She wanted to get the car washed and wax and when I arived she asked if I could correct the headlights. I said sure. The dealership wanted $1100 to replace both headlights and and install them. Restorating them cost $40.

Headlights:
DP Rinseless Wash and Gloss
M105 (Hydro cutting pad)
M205 (Hydro polishing pad)
WGPS

The Car:
Wheels: DP Wheels Gel
Wash: Chemical Guys Citrus Wash (Sorry AG but this car was pretty dirty)
Clay: Wolfgang
Clay Lube: DP Rinseless Wash and Gloss
Tire Shine: Black Again
LSP: Klasse AIO (2 coats, you will be suprised how long this stuff last and how good it looks. I used this because the car sits on the side of the beach all day and Klasse as good protection against salt so I gave it a try as an LSP)

Headlights:

Before:



After:




The Car:

Before: Since the car was silver it was hard to show all the dirt on the car, so the only before pictures are of the rims.



After:
