It’s not “set it and forget it” — you’ll need to apply it well, but when done right, the results are very satisfying. For long-lasting clarity, consider following up with a sealant or UV protective coating.

Bought this with a sanding kit after watching videos saying both work well. Sanded one light and polished at end. Decided to forgo sanding on second headlight, took care of heavily yellowed plastic and looked better than sanded headlight. Well worth the money. Also great to polish watches.

This is pretty good stuff. Don't expect it to work miracles and you'll be pleased with the results. This was recommended to use on a pair of sunglasses which is maybe not what others are here to purchase it for lol, but I hope this helps someone out there! I got this pair of Tom Ford sunglasses for $24 knowing they needed repairs. When they arrived I saw they were in pretty bad shape with all of the scratches and fading on the frames, much worse than I had anticipated. I wish I had taken an actual before photo. The first photo in my pics is actually a little after I had already started using this product. There were so many scratches on the frames, including a major one down the bridge that you can see in the photos. So that was my frame of reference for how well this product was working. I probably spent about 8-10 minutes rubbing this in gently with a chamois cloth. You can see it removed some of the micro scratches and smoothed the surface pretty well. It didn't completely get rid of the major scratch but it is a lot less noticeable. Maybe if I had kept going it would have reduced it a little more but I didn't care that much to keep going. I cleaned the frames after application and then applied a couple drops of baby oil which also helped reduce the appearance of the remaining scratches and restored the gloss. You can also use mineral oil. These look pretty good again for $24! I used such a tiny amount of this product but already used it for an art project and have plenty of other plastic things I plan to restore so it's well worth the investment.

Great for final buffing headlights via drill after wet sanding them with 2500 grit.

I drive about 1500 miles per month, so I buff out my headlights (and spray them with Meguiars headlight sealant) a minimum of once a year (usually twice a year) and this stuff works great. The healdight spray sealant is also great stuff. Follow the instructions. Don't use in cold weathter.

Lot of work, just buy new stuff

Average, says "do not use on coated plastic" on the bottle. Did not do a good job on my cars black plastic trim. Headlights ok though.

My headlights were very yellow and fogged up. I applied it 3 times and now very clear.
