Bob Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 Good pics, mate. I was surprised when I refurbed mine how only a tiny portion of the fading/crapiness was on the inside! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedM Posted April 10, 2007 Author Share Posted April 10, 2007 Works well on the dash instrument / warning cluster clear lenses too. I thought that too when prowling around the car looking for other bits to make shiny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedM Posted April 10, 2007 Author Share Posted April 10, 2007 halfrauds. they were open till 18:00 yesterday afternoon. Damn, I was hoping you wouldn't say that. I got the wrong type of T-Cut and the website said 4pm closing. Oh well, I'll scoot down one lunchtime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ewen Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 I thought that too when prowling around the car looking for other bits to make shiny. Et tu Brute...after doing the rear lights and the double-din hi-fi screen, I was stumped and at a loss...so I did the headlights again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedM Posted April 10, 2007 Author Share Posted April 10, 2007 Speaking of polishing, I used some glass polish and removed the wiper zone marks from the front and rear. Now that was hard work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jive Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 Good pics, mate. I was surprised when I refurbed mine how only a tiny portion of the fading/crapiness was on the inside! Yeah I noticed that there was some on the insides of the headlights but there's no way I'm putting them in the oven to sort out, knowing my luck I'll screw 'em completely Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jive Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 My rear lights are fine. Might do the number plate and the headlights again.

Guest mk47 Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 Speaking of polishing, I used some glass polish and removed the wiper zone marks from the front and rear. Now that was hard work. i find t cut glass polish works very well on all glass.. i got it for 99p from motorworld a couple weeks back too only bought it because it was 99p to add to my collection, but must say its very good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silvershark44 Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 What a top tip! SOunds like you can get 90% of the results of a refurb for only a fraction of the cost! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greenauto Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 Hope so! I'm still keen to get a set of j-spec black facelift style lights from Jon, but if this works that well I may leave the purchase for a while. Gonna try over the weekend, I'll post some before and afters once I've done it as i think mine are the most cloudy I've seen. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
