Do I need any tools besides what is in the kit?

Yes. You will need a standard corded drill. The sanding discs and wool pad attach to the drill for powered operation. A corded drill is recommended over cordless for consistent speed throughout the process.

How long does the protective coating last?

Meguiar's rates the included headlight coating for up to 12 months of protection against re-oxidation and yellowing. Actual longevity depends on sun exposure, climate, and whether the vehicle is garaged.

Can I use this on tail lights and fog lights too?

Yes. The kit works on any uncoated clear plastic lens, including headlights, taillights, fog lights, and directional lights. The sanding and polishing process is the same regardless of which lens you are restoring.

Product Details

Yellowed, hazy headlights are not just an eyesore, they cut down on how much light actually reaches the road at night. Meguiar's G2980 kit tackles heavy oxidation, cloudiness, and yellowing on plastic headlight lenses using a drill-powered process that combines sanding and polishing in one package.

Inside the kit you get sanding discs for removing surface oxidation, Meguiar's PlastX Clear Plastic Cleaner and Polish for restoring clarity, and an Easy-Buff wool pad attachment that works with a standard corded drill. After you sand and polish, a headlight coating is included that protects against re-oxidation and yellowing for up to 12 months, which helps keep your results looking good rather than fading back within a few weeks.

You will need a standard corded drill to use this kit, as the sanding discs and wool pad are designed to attach to a drill for consistent speed and pressure. Work through the sanding stages before moving to the polish step for the cleanest results. The kit covers two headlight lenses.
