Car headlight cleaner provides professional results at home
If you have plastic headlights that aren’t looking as clear as they should, what do you do? Replacing the headlights can be pretty expensive and depending on the car they can be hard to find. It’s time to find yourself a good headlight kit!
Meguiar’s Heavy Duty Headlight Restoration Kit removes heavy oxidation, cloudiness and surface scratches, while delivering a crystal clear finish to restore headlights. It is ideal for severely oxidized, neglected or yellowed car headlights. This car headlight restoration kit utilizes both hand and drill application for sanding and machine buffing. To seal and protect the freshly restored lens, Meguiar’s proprietary Headlight Coating prevents re-oxidation for up to one year after application, keeping your car lights cleaner. The self-leveling coating contains 100% active ingredients, maximizing the durability and clarity of the headlight lens. This headlight cleaner and restorer from Meguiar’s makes it easy for anyone to achieve amazing results.
Kit Contents
This auto headlight restorer kit contains the following:
Meguiar’s PlastX Clear Plastic Cleaner & Polish (4 oz.)
- Gently removes light oxidation, chemical degradation, surface contamination, stains and light surface scratches with ease. It features water resistant polymers that provide long-lasting durable protection. This cleaner and plastic polish contains a rich gel formula that quickly restores optical clarity to both rigid and flexible clear plastics.
Headlight Coating (4 oz.)
- A proprietary spray coating that helps to improve and maintain optical clarity on freshly cleaned or restored headlights for up to a year. This unique formula provides durable UV protection and comes in an easy-to-use aerosol spray application. Meguiar’s Keep Clear Headlight Coating will give you the long-lasting clarity you're looking for.
- Headlight Coating applicator pad
- Easy-buff wool pad
- 1000 and 3000 grit sanding discs
- Easy grip hand sanding pad
How-To
Step 1
- Start with a headlight cleaning. Remove dirt and dust with a glass cleaner and microfiber towel and mask around the headlight.
Step 2
- Attach the 1000 grit disc to the hand pad, dunk the disc into water or spray water directly onto the disc, and repeat this periodically to ensure that the pad stays wet.
Step 3
- Sand side to side until the headlight has a uniform frosted appearance and wipe dry with a microfiber towel. Repeat this process with the 3000 grit disc, but work up and down instead of side to side.
Step 4
- Follow with PlastX Clear Plastic Cleaner & Polish and the included wool pad on a standard corded drill (between 1200 and 2500 RPMs) to polish the plastic back up to clarity. Work in thoroughly using moderate pressure for 1-2 minutes and wipe off with a microfiber towel. If needed, repeat this multiple times until the lens is clear.
Step 5
- Spray with glass cleaner and wipe with a microfiber towel before applying the headlight coating for protection. Shake well and apply a medium coat of the headlight coating to the entire surface of the headlight, overlapping your passes by 50%. Allow to cure for 3-5 minutes and then apply a second coat for a thorough seal. The headlight coating will then be fully cured after 24 hours.

To say that it far exceeded my expectations would be the understatement of the century. I'm sorry I didn't take any "before" photos, but you can see from the photos I included with this review that the headlight housings now look almost new. Make no mistake: there is work involved, but with persistence and elbow grease, I got this result in less than 2 hours. Everything you need is included, except of course for the power drill, and the instructions are very clear and easy to follow.
I can't comment on longevity, but I was pleased to find that there is enough polish and sealer to do a touch-up in a year or two if needed.
This is one of the few products I've run into that not only lives up to its promises, but exceeds them. If your headlights are as bad as ours were, save yourself the expense of a new car, and use this!

This is where you see the change. Make sure your lense is properly taped around the perimeter and apply a healthy dollop of plastic finisher to seal the holes created from the sanding process. You will notice your lenses look new now.
Clean and dry well and apply sealer uv protectant. Let stand without washing for 24 hours.
Lenses look brand new.
Great product. Takes a bit of elbow grease and patience but well worth the results.
The after picture was taken after 24 hours of curing.
Note that this kit will not get out deeper rock chips, I think a lower grit might be needed if you really want to remove all imperfections. But it definitely clears up all that yellow and foggy damage with amazing results.
Can't speak on how it holds up, as it's only been a couple of weeks.
