There’s been lots of talk on various headlight restoration products on detailing forums.
Just Google the topic and there are tons of products claiming all sorts of stuff…
Quite frankly, any 1k product that is applied by hand can only last so long. And that
might be fine if the owner maintains his vehicles appearance. Washes/waxes it regularly.
But that’s rare.There is a coating on the headlights and that’s what fails. Polishing a failed coating
wont last. It’s still failed. kinda like polishing out an oxidized cc.These STILL look great:

charge a little extra or just do it for free. Always makes ’em happy.Beautiful…
Those books are popular!

There are MANY more skilled and intelligent speakers on TED.
SOP is important and should be defined. But even still, that wont be enough as much of it
is common sense. And showing anger wont help either. Rather than taking a thou-shalt-not
attitude, try dealing with the individuals on a more personal level. See what’s going on
in their lives. At some early point, they probably woke up eager and took great pride in
their work but what happened? Hm…It is your shop and if your employees are screwing up, then it’s you that’s screwing up.
It’s your inability to get it all together. Self blame is the game and a better approach
to reduce – not eliminate – stressors.Quick read: http://stress.about.com/od/stressmanagementglossary/g/stressors.htm
Nice shop! NICE view!!! What a place to work! I see you doing boats in the near future.
You keep a clean shop! Keep posting!
Great machine. It’s a work horse! Check ebay.
Very clean job! Good color combo! Not keen on Dodges either but $$$!
Looks damn good! Yeah, don’t listen to these old farts. Do what you gotta do! 😉
The shop, the house… DUDE! When the hell do you ever have time????
Brian, i like the way you work. Lots of attention to detail! But i’d have to
agree with Joe. You may want to consider other materials. It’s gonna cost more,
but charge more!Anyhow, keep posting!
Yes, Andy, it’s chili red. Very easy to match. One of the nicest looking
reds i’ve seen.It’s not an exciting silver. Kinda boring, really. But it’s easy with very few
toners…the flakes are too fine and looks muted, almost flat.Thank ya! it looks pretty good from here too. 😛
Welcome! would be great to see some of your work!
