Marty1198 Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 My headlight lenses are badly scratched. Can anyone suggest a product to remove most of the scratches? I have tried a scratch removal paste type of thing that I have used on the paintwork but it has no effect on the plastic lenses. Is there a specific product on the market for this purpose? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have tried a scratch removal paste type of thing that I have used on the paintwork but it has no effect on the plastic lenses. Is there a specific product on the market for this purpose?I'm just about to list my set of 2010 genuine focus headlights removed from my focus last year because I wanted black units and the ones I have are chrome units no scratches or anything,I'm open to offers if our interested, Not trying to force sell them just thought I'd give them a mention Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marty1198 Posted July 28, 2013 Author Share Posted July 28, 2013 Thanks for the offer Lenny. I also have the chrome headlights but given the chance I would also change them for the black ones. My Focus is sea grey and I think the black one would look better. My neighbour has a Zetec S the same colour as mine but has the black lights. Looks a lot better than the chrome ones. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wase16ll Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 would second the toothpaste idea, does work for slight scratches and when the covers go dull Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marty1198 Posted July 29, 2013 Author Share Posted July 29, 2013 Thanks for that Sal. Had a quick look earlier and got a few ideas. Will look into it in more depth later. There looks as if there are a great number of products on the market that would do the job. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
