Can't believe I put this off for so long. Before pic shows the condition after I washed it. Took some M105 on a 3.5" foamed wool purple pad. Got so hot that I trashed the backing plate on the second light lol. But damn, what a difference! Whole truck got some P21s while I was at it too

I use this to polish my head and tail lights.

My 2.5 year old head lights look new. And my tails are actually from my '13 and are 5 years old. They look better than new.
