Greg (anyone else) is this what you are referring to? Have you used/bought? Says professional installation. Did you install?

Anyone else used?

Bill I have the 3M version which is about the same thing including the price. I've had mine on for at least 4 years..works well!

headlight.jpgAnybody ever used this product (or one like it)? I'm sure I must have bought it when I was trying to save my headlights. Bought new lights and would like to do something to keep them new looking. This product was cheap (Blue Magic???) and I'm afraid it might be one of those things that do more harm than good. Thoughts?

Back to the original question. Has anyone used this product or type of product.

Bill, I have not used this product but have used other 'blue magic' products. What I would do is try it on some other piece of (junk?) clear plastic and see how it does. Maybe a neighbor's headlight????

Cheryl that cracks me up. Yep that's what I'll do. He leaves his car out at night so as it gets dark I'll go throw some on his headlight and see how it does!!!!!

I use these products on all our cars (except my old Jeep, which has good ole glass headlights):

First I hit the lights with this stuff (Meguiars PlastX)....works great: https://www.amazon.com/Meguiars-G123...ght+protectant

Then I hit it with this stuff (Meguiars Headlight Protectant): https://www.ebay.com/i/192560180044?chn=ps

I'll be honest.....the Headlight Protectant stuff isn't anything special. Good ole car wax works just as good. I heard that Meguiars discontinued the product anyway (my bottle is at least 6 years old).

But the PlastX stuff is awesome....does a great job cutting through the haze, unless the lenses are really foggy. Then you need polishing compound or one of the 3M kits. PlastX works great on foggy plastic wine glasses also :)

Perfect for that vintage '75 Annie Greensprings Berry Frost you've been saving!

That's what I use. Still have the original headlights after 16+ years and 146K miles. They are pitted, but clear. When the windshield finally cracks out, I'll change it, the head lights and the supplemental lights all at once.
