Good Job Arlin - very impressive job!

My girl's prelude could use a headlight treatment - you had some really good ideas on how to do the LED's and I think it's very do-able - call me this weekend and we can talk more.

got this kit yesterday 3M, and I realized that my headlights arent a real candidate for this process. they're not perect but they also dont have any real hazing, though I want them looking new again....

would you recomend skipping to one of the later steps, not using the higher grit, and moving right to the polishing phase?

is there a simpler method just for lightly affacted headlights?

would this product be the same as Novus?

I got Novus #2 for my friend and it cleared up his headlights real nice.
