How to Clean My Plastic Headlight Lenses

Many vehicles on the road today use plastic in the manufacturing process, in particular on the headlights. But over time the headlight lenses can get some surface scratches, and their fine shine can start to be lost. To fix that, use a little plastic polish and cleaner to get your headlights clean and looking new again.

Things You'll Need

• Plastic cleaner/polish
• Foam applicator pad
• Microfiber towel

Instructions

1. Pour a quarter-size dab of the plastic cleaner/polish on the foam applicator pad.

2. Rub the polish onto the headlight lens in a circular pattern, making sure to work around the headlight completely. If necessary, reapply the polish on the foam to get additional product on the lens.

3. Rub off the polish in a circular pattern with the microfiber towel, turning the towel frequently to get to a clean spot.

4. Repeat the previous steps if you feel the lens needs additional polishing.
