Rattus 2 Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 I have tried Duraglit before now, but it just didn't seem to remove the yellow tarnish.However, I thought I'd give the Autosol a go. Drat . . . . run out, but found some Betterware Miracle Metal polish and an old cotton tshirt.I have just spent 10 mins on both headlights and WOW. Nice and clear again. I don't know how long it will last, but I don't mind doing it every few months if it gets them looking as good as this.For those that are farmiliar with Autosol, the Miracle Metal polish from Betterware is runnier and I think a little less abrasive.Cheers Quote Link to post Share on other sites
FROSTYBALLS 3,336 Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 Some people have used toothpaste and a microfibre cloth. Polished afterwards with car wax. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Aceshigh84 30 Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 I have used Brasso as well on my Honda, and then finished off with a couple of coats of normal wax to try and put some protection back on the lenses.I found that using a polishing machine was much easier than going it by hand Quote Link to post Share on other sites
