Need help : Headlights cleaning


Need help lang sana kung may kilala kayong naglilinis ng headlights for Nissan Sentra dito sa South area (Paranaque).
How much kaya? Ok din ba magpagawa sa Evangelista Pasay? Thanks!

this is a lil bit hard, i had the same problem with my SiR, coz cars nowadays have plastic housings, they will need to actually sand it off - meaning, use sandpaper to smoothen it again, but the downside is that they will really need to dismantle the whole casing.. Then next problem down the road is that it might moist since it's been opened.

try mo buff paps.. ung sa kabarkada ko na honda civic ganun ang ginawa nya. luminaw ng konti.. sakit kasi ng mga plastic na headlight yan..

wag mo na lang gagamitan ng matataas na watts ng bulb para hindi maluto agad ung plastic. stock lang o kaya HID.

Thanks sa reply, actually may nakita na akong maglilinis ng headlights sa bandang south.
Motortown sa likod ng ATC (Alabang Town Center), they are charging 1500 php for both headlights.

Check na lang ako sa Evangelista kung may mura kaso medyo delikado lang sa Evangelista kasi maraming gago tulad sa Banawe.

Kung may kilala kayo na mas mura & somewhere in Sucat area, pa-post na lang. Thanks!

you might be surprised but TOOTH PASTE can actually buff your headlights..

put a generous dab of tooth paste on a clean rag and rub it on your headlights..

be sure to use PASTE and not those GEL types..

when i was in the US, i bought a headlight cleaner, and all it contained was two pcs of 2x3 inches of a 2000 grit sandpaper.

papel de liha lang katapat niyan bro. also works with motorcycle wind shields. always make sure that the surface is a little wet. and never open the cover of your headlight. ang dumi niyan nasa labas lang. not unless na-ondoy yung sasakyan mo..

You can also try AUTOSOL Chrome and metal polish para di ka masyado mahirapan with the toothpaste solution. Tried it on numerous cars, also removes those nasty water marks on your windshield and windows. 1 tube - 89 pesos will clean your whole car.
