3M Ultra Headlight Restoration Kit, Contains Masking Tape, Light Sanding Discs, Wax Protectant and More, Use on Plastic Lenses Headlights, Taillights and More, Easy Heavy-Duty Restoration (39195)

I did this headlight restoration in Feb of 2025. The kit is great and the restoration was easy enough. I just washed the car in August 2025 and the restoration still looks great. My wife parks this car outside all day at work so the sun beats down on this all day here in So Cal. I’m happy with how this product has performed. 3M is a reliable product. You wont regret it. I did the same to my Silverado a month later and ot also looks great still. Kit only does 1 car. Photo was taken 6 months after application

This worked like a dream. We’ve had our headlights polished at the shop before but I thought I’d try this kit to save some money. Wow! Works great. Trust the process and do exactly as instructed. The end result was headlights looking like they did when we bought the car 13 yrs ago. Will regularly apply the finish clear coat to keep them looking great.

I am happily shocked by the results. I purchased based on reviews but did not expect this kit to work as well as it did. After having a headlight replaced, there was a drastic difference in the appearance of my lights. I had no idea how yellowed and opaque mine had become until i saw the old and new ones together. After using this kit, I cannot tell the difference between them. The process was simple and the instructions were detailed and easy to follow.

Worked well for me on a lens i've restored twice before with Sylania kit. The Sylvania restoration lasts about 2-3 years then starts clouding again. I liked the drill based sanding a LOT better than the hand based sanding, but despite 2 layers of tape did manage to cut through and put a small mark in the paint on my bumper so next time 3-4 layers of tape. Not a major issue for me. This kit was good value, fast and efficient. I like that it is possible to buy additional wipes and an additional 3000 grit pad in the "Quick & Easy Headlight Restoration" kit for just $7.I only restored one (large GMC Sierra Denali) headlight because the other side had been replaced with a new lens several years into owning the vehicle. It still looks pretty good. I'll probably restore both sides next time but once it's done, you have to keep doing it every 2-3 years so I'm not doing that side until I really need to. I wiped that side with the wipes though...maybe it will help protect longer having another coat. Or maybe it will destroy it and I'll have to do the full restoration. No matter, this kit looks like enough to do both sides, other than the wipes and possibly the 3000 grit single pad.-1 star for lack of a 2nd glove, lack of a 2nd 3000 grit pad. And it would be nice to be able to buy just the UV Clearcoat packets alone at low cost. But these kits are cost effective and seem to work.Overall satisfied and now I'll just wait to see how long it takes until I have to do it again. Sylvania kit lasted 2-3 years. This say on the box it lasts "up to 2 years" so maybe next time I'll sand with the 3M kit, but buy a bottle of the sylvania clear coat and do that if it lasts better. We'll see.

This kit has pretty good reviews and it worked well for me. I used a 20 volt drill and it took me about an hour per headlight. I started with a used battery and changed to a full charged battery for the second light. The kit says to use two layers of tape around the edge of the lights to protect the paint. I had enough for about 1.5 lights. Used regular blue painters tape to complete the second light and it worked ok. Instructions were good, explained what to look for when sanding. Lights will be hazy when finished sanding but the coating transforms the lens into a clear coat. Good results for the price.

Works as advertised. Easy to use. Took me longer than 40 minutes but I suspect I probably wasn't following the directions to the letter. When they say light to medium pressure, they literally mean just that - if your drill has enough juice, it shouldn't be a problem.Wish they'd had one extra pad each of the initial (gold) and the intermediate (white) sanding paper. I could've done a more thorough job on my headlights. I also wish I'd taken a before and after picture! But overall very satisfied! Would definitely recommend - absolutely worth the money!

Very good product. Instructions were easy to follow and results were amazing. Looks much better than before.

I thought the product was great - here’s the result - this is a 12 year old truck parked outside basically all the time, and I’ve only done 1 other restoration but that was years ago.I think the sander on the drill is way better than those hand kits esp with the final stage (buffing). There’s a little technique but it isn’t hard. I’d say takes about an hour of work and sweat if you focus but you’ll save hundreds on headlight replacement.
