Product Usage Instructions
Step 1:
Remove any dirt, dust, or debris from the headlight using the provided
Alcohol Prep Pad (J). Next, wipe the area dry using the Large Microfiber Towel
(G).
Step 2:
Mask edges using masking tape.
Step 3:
Attach the 1000 Grit Sandpaper (B) to the Buffer Drill Attachment (D) to
the drill.
Step 4:
Sand the headlight in a smooth uniform side-to-side motion with overlapping
passes. Use water or spray water directly onto the sandpaper.
Step 5:
Sand evenly and with the same applied pressure to create a smooth surface,
but not to generate extreme heat in any particular area of the headlight. Be
sure to occasionally clear the headlight lens of any debris.
Step 6:
Remove the 1000 Grit Sandpaper (B) and attach the 3000 Grit Sandpaper (C)
to the Buffer Drill Attachment (D) to the drill.
Step 7:
Sand the headlight in a smooth uniform side-to-side motion with overlapping
passes.
Step 8:
Attach the Buffer Drill Attachment (D) to the drill with the Firm Foam Pad
(E).
Step 9:
Apply 3 nickel-sized drops of CPX-1 Polish (H) to the Firm Foam Pad (E).
Step 10:
Use a slow, back & forth continuous overlapping motion and alter drill
speed as needed to treat a small area at a time. Heavy pad pressure is not
required. Do not use the pad’s edge.
Step 11:
Remove Firm Foam Pad (E) and attach the Soft Foam Pad (F) to the drill.
Step 12:
Apply 3 nickel-sized drops of CPX-2 Polish (I) to the Soft Foam Pad (F).
Step 13:
Use a slow, back & forth continuous overlapping motion and alter drill
speed as needed to treat a small area at a time. Heavy pad pressure is not
required. Do not use the pad’s edge.
Step 14:
Clean the headlight lens with an Alcohol Prep Pad (J) to remove all CPX
product residue, then wipe clean and dry with the fresh side of a microfiber
towel.
Step 15:
Apply 5-10 drops of the Ceramic-Nu (K) across the headlight. Wait 1-2
minutes for a rainbow-like haze to appear, then use the Small Microfiber Towel
(A) to wipe away to ensure no haze remains.
Step 16:
Continue working your way across the headlight with overlapping strokes
until the entire headlight has been treated. Optional: Repeat the coating
procedure again for extra protection.
Step 17:
It is recommended to keep the headlight clean and dry while Ceramic-Nu Protection Bond fully cures for 24 hours.
