How to fix misty headlight?

Featured Replies

My passenger side headlight looks to have gone all mouldy or misty, Its hard to explain, its not condensation / moisture, but it looks more like thousands of tiny cracks?

I dont know, both cars I've gotten have had this now so it seems like a common problem, anyone got a solution?

Can put pictures up if required..

Awesome, What grit are we talking? surely like a 1500 or something? Then cutting to get the final shine back?

Cheers guys, saved me buying a new Xenon headlight!

Exactly whats happened to mine as well! Need the weather to pick up so I can get to restoring them

Yeah the kit its just sandpaper, water, and cuttting compound / polish in one, so youd best just get your own kit together with seperately!

but thanks for the help, going to give mine a shot today!
