just finished refinishing my pass side headlight. it had some light pitting but was bad enough to really bother me.
anyways i wanted to share my experiance so others can give it a shot.
i didnt buy one of those kits that are suppose to remove oxidation. all you need is 2 packs of sand paper, 1000 grit and 1500 grit, and a bottle of meguires plastx polish.
remove your headlights and use the 1000 grit to remove the major pitting. you can use it dry or wetsand it. make sure to sand everything evenly for the best results. after sanding with the 1000 grit paper just switch to the 1500 grit and wetsand the entire assembly. dry the headlight off and look to see that it is completely smooth all the way across. them you simply use the plastx polish to remove the light scratches left behind by the sanding.
thats it. just reinstall your lights and enjoy
