How to Use Headlight Restoration Fluid?

(Check if the headlight bulb and lamp base are intact) Remove oil and wax, clean oil stains, sweat stains, and wax (silicone) on and around the lamp surface. Wipe as large an area as possible, using a specialized oil-removal cloth dipped in a small amount of pre-treatment agent to clean the headlight. This not only removes oil and wax but also has an anti-static effect.
I usually enjoy taking care of my car myself, and using headlight restoration fluid is quite simple. First, thoroughly clean the surface of the headlight to remove all stains and grease. You can use a dedicated cleaner or soapy water to scrub and then dry it. Next, sand the surface gently with sandpaper to remove the old, yellowed layer, making it rougher for better adhesion. When applying the restoration fluid, a thin layer is most suitable—don’t make it too thick. Use the provided small brush or cloth to spread it evenly, wait a few minutes for it to dry, and then repeat the process to ensure full coverage. Finally, polish the headlight cover to restore its clear, glossy shine. Choose a cool, dry place to work, avoiding direct sunlight to prevent accelerated drying, which could affect the results. The key is to be patient—it only takes about ten minutes, and the effect can last for over half a year.
