CERAKOTE® Ceramic Headlight Restoration Kit

I followed the directions however when it came to applying the coating it looked uneven after 1 pass. I wasn't sure if this was normal and almost considered wiping it off. A YouTube video claimed that it was self leveling but there was nothing in the directions.

Application of product is very easy but will require some manual labor of course. Everything that you needed to do the job successfully was given in abundance. The final step is very crucial to not have ANY water on or near the final application. I made sure that all remaining H2O was removed via air compressor and sitting in the sunlight for an hour or so. I completed the first headlight and it looked amazing. Then I moved over to the second headlight and all was going well... Until one rather large drop of sweat rolled off my nose in slow motion and landed on the headlight while I was applying. Immediately it was ruined. The product is amazing and looks great on my left headlight but my right headlight looks like it got smacked in the face by a grizzly bear Paw. Hope Cerakote reads this and can help a consumer out. moral of the story is where a hazmat suit so you don't drip any H2O anywhere near this product. Great product though.

Great product! Made my head lights look brand new!

I've got an older 3 series BMW and over time the fog lights in the bumper started to look really cloudy. I figured I would try the Cerakote restoration kit on them because it it didn't work I probably couldn't make it look any worse. Directions are pretty straight forward and they give you everything you need. Before I ordered the product I watched a auto detailing reviewer try the product out with great results. He used it on a headlight it had taken out of the car which make it so much easier for him to work with. If it's easy enough for you to remove your headlight I would recommend doing so. I didn't have the appetite to drop my bumper so I attempted it the restore with the lights attached to the car. Initially I used some painters tape hoping to protect the paint. That proved useless since the water I'd have to apply just made the tape come right off. Steps were simple enough. 1. Clean headlight 2. Wipe well with Oxidation wipe in circular motion. Use multiple wipes. 3. Wet headlight and red sanding pad and sand in straight lines. (Keep wet while sanding) 4. Move to the gray sanding pad and keep sanding (Keep wet while sanding) 5. Dry the headlight and surrounding throughly. Headlight will look cloudy. 6. Use Ceramic coating wipe in straight line wipes Pretty impressed with the results. I Attached before and after pictures for reference. Getting the edges of the lights i found taking the sanding pads off the grip and sanding by hand helped. Since I was only doing two small headlights I had enough to also do my passenger side headlight which wasn't oxide to bad and it cleared it up as well. My driver sider headlight was replaced a couple of years ago so it didn't need to be fixed but I did have an extra ceramic coating wipe. I figured if I coated the good headlight I would prevent it oxidizing over time.....don't do it. It started to leave streaks which I furiously tried to wipe out. I think I was luck enough to get most of it off but save yourself the trouble and frustration and only use this kit and it's supplies on headlights that need to be restored. Overall, I'm really impressed with the results.

Better than anything else Ive used!

Easy to use
