Try some plastic polish, like Meguiers PlasticX or a Mothers Plastic polish...


Ive used PlasticX and the polishing ball and it works great on the plastic headlights, so it should clean up your fogs pretty well...

if u wanna do it on a budget use toothpaste and some elbow grease....or a drill with a buffer on it

I always do wetsanding finishing up w/ 2000 then I would use a buffing wheel on the drill press w/ white rouge. But after wetsanding, you could use plastic polish instead.

thats what I did, I just polished the fogs with plastic polish after wetsanding, came out just fine and still clear 1.5 years later!

i usually sand with 1000g, 2000g, mag & aluminum polish, and plastic polish. later.

polishing compound works well, or you could get a meguiers, rain-x or 3m lens polishing kit, ranging from $8-25 or so. most include a sealer compound which will protect your fogs from future discoloration and fogging.

no lie toothpaste does work

i hear it works on teeth too.

you usually get better results with a product that is dedicated to a specific use. later.

use a headlight restoration kit. usually comes with sandpaper and sealant.
slow long process but well worth it in the end.
halfway through you will think you screwed them but will turn out fine

Just pop the disc into a drill and follow the instructions, its super easy.

I used it on the fogs I got off of a junker, they look brand new now.

Pick it up at walmart though. Its cheaper there than at stores like autozone or o'rilleys.
