This kit includes:
2ea - 6" Loose Section Buffs (1/2 Arbor Hole)
1ea - 16oz Plastic Compound
1ea - 3lb Bar Tripoli Brown Compound
1ea - Wheel Arbor for 1/2 AH Buffs (1/4" shank) for use with drill or die grinder
This kit has the Tripoli compound included to use as the first step with one of the loose section buffs to remove heavy lens fog. You will follow up with the specially formulated blue plastic compound and the other loose section buff to restore the luster. This kit will remove most scratches and fog from headlight lens and will produce a shinny clear surface. Deep scratches, that this compound will not remove, will need to be sanded out. Start by cross hatch sanding with 180 or 220 grit and follow up with 400 grit. Then buff to remove the sanding marks. The ideal speed is 1800 RPM (less likely to burn), but it can be done at 3600 RPM. Rake the buff every 5 minutes to remove spent compound and stand or fluff up the buff fibers. The more fibers standing up, the more compound the buff can hold. Thus the more compound present, the less likelihood of burning the plastic because the compound acts as a lubricant between the buff and part. IMPORTANT: Never mix compounds on your buffs!
Safety first - Always wear adequate & proper EYE, EAR, FACE, BODY and RESPIRATORY PROTECTION while polishing and buffing.
