Two months later, how did your blue magic & never dull work? Have you had to re-apply since early April? I need to do something about my headlamps lenses also.

After you get it clear, try putting the vinyl covers on the plastic lenses, clear stuff that you just lay on there, I don't believe they are adhesive. It will protect against rock chips/cracks and also blocks UV light. My buddy put them on his prelude, and it worked pretty well.

I actually stole someone's idea off another site but I couldn't find it again, so I made my own. h:

Default yellowing headlights

How long did your headlights stay clear? or how long between applications? Trying to decide whether it's worth it to use the nevr-dull or go through the trouble of sanding the lenses. Thx.

The never dull stuff is only $3.50 a can and there is enough to polish hundreds of headlights. Mine are still clear but if they turn yellow again, it only takes 2 minutes to bring them back.

I would recommend against sanding them.

Shmoo, nice write up but in the picture you put microfiber on the ground...thats bad.

That never dull stuff just seems like a fine compound and then you buff it out with the MF.
