Foggy Lenses

I bought "Headlight Restorer" from Autozone ,it worked great with a little elbow grease. Paid only about $8.

I think I depends on how bad he lenses are fogged.

I bought a kit at NAPA and followed the instructions to the letter. I used it on my 97 Suburban and it made absolutely no difference. I had to buy new lenses.

However, I think most forum members have had excellent results with the kits they purchased.
I will try a kit again when needed, I think my lenses were too damaged to be restored.

Personally, I wouldn't bother with the 'home made' cures and would just buy a kit designed for the job.

But, that's me. :)

Meguare's makes a great kit for headlight restoration, including a UV protectant that will keep them looking good for a long time. Available at their online stores or many auto parts stores. I have used it on several vehicles, with very good results.

My recently purchased motor home has very foggy lights. I tried toothpaste; baking soda and vinegar; WD40; and had a mechanic try to clear them up. No luck on any of those methods.

I am giving up and going to buy new headlight assemblies. I will watch it from now on and not let it get to the condition they are in now before doing something about it. However the lights I have now are beyond repair.

I replaced both headlight assemblies on my E450 for $50 apiece.....off the Internet. (My reason was cracks though.)

I won't tell you the price that Ford quoted me for them because I still don't believe it.

The toothpaste will only work if it has an abrasive in it. Basically, most "paste" toothpastes will, and most gels will not. Better yet is to use a course automotive polishing compound and buffer.

I used a 3M Headlight Restoration kit on my old Saturn's lenses. It worked fine. Have been putting off doing the RV, but it is on the list.
