338 viewsThis is it. Comes with pad holder and six polishing pads. It was $9 less than the 3M product and worked great. The headlights were badly pitted but not quite yellowed. I think glass covers would've been a better idea but... I used one pad per headlamp/turn signal (the whole headlight cover) then used another pad that I shared between the headlamps so for my application it was 1.5 pads per headlamp. If your covers aren't as bad then one should be fine.

337 viewsPut tape around the headlamp to protect the paint. I initially used a battery-powered drill (pictured) but the battery was low on charge so I switched to my 6-amp drill. Locked the trigger on and started polishing. Very easy to do and I overlapped per the instructions, moving roughly a half-inch, back-n-forth across the headlamp then some lesser work on the turn signal area (it wasn't as badly pitted).

320 viewsTa-da! Big improvement. Neither one looked brand-new but they sure looked a LOT better after I was done. At least now you can see reflections in the plastic cover. You couldn't see them before.
