Headlights were looking pretty dang pitted, another product of Nevada: the sand left its mark.

Decided to clean them up today. Wet sanded starting at 600 grit all the way up to 3000 to get as much of the pitting out.

Then I used my Torq 22D (love this thing) and V36 cutting compound with a medium pad and V38 polishing compound with a light pad to bring the shine back.

The results were nicer than I was hoping for. To keep them crisp, I applied clear Lamin-X that was an absolute pain to lay flat. I have a little moisture that needs to cure out of the Lamin-X but I think they will look great in a few days when that cures.
