    Default pics from todays wetsand

    now it was my first time doing wetsanding my headlights and i can say i deff notice a huge difference, esp if you look at my signature before they were wetsanded. anyway products used were 400,600,and 2000 grit sand papers, meguiars plastic polishing and used at 1600 rpm throughout headlight. then waxed with cleaners wax. anyway i just snapped these as i was going along. im going to do my taillights tomorrow. they are 5x's as bad.

    nope, everything polished out alright, the only reason i did 400 was because they were pretty bad had alot of roughness and haze to em, but i think if i do it anymore from now on ill start at 800 then 1000 then 2000.
