Cloudy taillight tip

Recommended Posts

I'm NOT recommending anyone try this but... I thought someone might want to hear about it.

 

My daughter's Camry had cloudy headlight lens. The lens was bad enough that I thought about replacing the headlight assemblies. I saw on the internet that you could spray the plastic headlight lens with "OFF - Deep Woods" bug  spray and it would make them look good as new. With her lens being so bad, what did I have to lose by trying it?

 

After covering up the painted surfaces I sprayed the headlight lens generously with the Off bug spray and immediately wiped it off with a handful of paper towels. No scrubbing with the paper towels. Just a swipe to remove the excess Off and let it dry. A yellow residue was on the paper towel when I wiped the spray off. To my amazement the cloudy lens now looks like new. I don't know how it works or how long it will last, but after two days it still looks great.

Probably not. If it will just last a lifetime I'll be happy.

Good luck with that. Let me know how it works out for you.

I have a couple of friends that tried that and they are not happy.
