Hello everyone! In this video I am restoring headlights on a 2015 Chevy Silverado. These are in my top 5 most tedious and time consuming headlights to restore. Between the severe oxidation, and prep time, they can easily take me up to an hour to restore. The most ironic part is that the 2013 and older Chevy Silverado's are in my Top 5 easiest headlights to restore.
I did explain to the customer that these don't always come out very well, since there are creases and crevice I cant reach, as well as microcracking in the lens. I told him they'd look much better but not perfect. These lights have crease where excessive amounts of oxidation can build up, as well as spots under the turn signals that I'm not able to sand. He said he was going to replace them, but was quoted $1300. I assume he went to the dealer for that quote. Overall, he was super happy with the results, and surprised I was able to get them as clear as I did.
After inspecting the lens, it was clear the oxidation was pretty severe, so the best grit for me to start at was 320. I wet sanded until enough of the oxidation was removed, then finished with the 600 grit before applying the clear coat.
