Instructions
TAKE A “BEFORE” PHOTO OF YOUR HEADLIGHT
Note:
- For best results, Cerakote Headlight restoration should be applied in the shade.
- A spray bottle with water or a hose and several clean dry towels are needed.
Step 1:
-
Before starting and if applicable, open the hood for easier access to the headlights.
-
Wash headlights thoroughly with any type of car soap, and rinse well.
-
Put on supplied gloves.
-
Using an Oxidization Remover Wipe, rub each headlight in a circular, scrubbing motion on all areas of the lens. During this process any oxidization in the lens will be extracted, and the wipe may turn yellow. Move to the next Oxidization Remover Wipe when the current wipe becomes yellow and soiled. Use all of the wipes to ensure your headlights are as clean as possible. Don’t worry if your wipes are still yellow as the next step will remove any remaining oxidization.
Note: If Oxidization Remover gets on your paint, wipe it off immediately with a clean dry towel.
Note: Complete both headlights with all of the Step 1 wipes before proceeding to Step 2. -
Rinse thoroughly.
-
After you have completed Step 1, remove and discard your gloves.
Note: When Step 1 is complete, your headlights should have a cloudy look.
Step 2:
-
Fasten the red disc to the Surface Prep Pad. (Be careful not to sand the paint or surrounding areas)
Note: In some cases, it may be necessary to remove the Surface Prep Discs from the Surface Prep Pad to get into hard to reach areas. Extra effort on this step will give you the best possible results. -
Wet the headlight lens and Surface Prep Disc with water (a squirt bottle works well) and scrub the entire lens in a uniform, non-circular motion for approximately 2 to 3 minutes. Be sure to keep the lens wet during this time! Upon completion, rinse well with water.
-
Fasten the grey disc to the Surface Prep Pad and repeat the previous process.
-
Rinse the headlights and surrounding areas well with water and dry with a clean soft towel. Use multiple towels to ensure the headlights are dry. The headlights and surrounding areas must be completely dry before starting Step 3.
Note: When Step 2 is complete, your headlights should have a clouded, frosted appearance. More surface prep is needed if areas are clear or shiny.
VERY IMPORTANT: THE CERAMIC CLEAR COATING IS NOT COMPATIBLE WITH WATER. THE HEADLIGHT AND SURROUNDING AREA MUST BE COMPLETELY DRY OR YOU WILL DAMAGE YOUR HEADLIGHT LENS.
STEP 3
- Put on the second pair of clean gloves and open one of the Cerakote Ceramic Clear Coat Wipes. Moving horizontally from top to bottom, carefully wipe the coating in a single direction using a 50% overlapping technique. A PPLY ONLY A SINGLE COAT.
- Repeat this process with the second wipe on the other headlight.
- Allow the Cerakote Ceramic Clear Coating to dry for a minimum of 60 minutes before driving or exposing them to any moisture.
Note: If the Clear Coat gets on paint, don’t worry. Just wipe it off immediately with a clean and dry towel.
