Lexus headlight restoration and PERMANENT sealant
#1

I got contacted by someone from the Lexus forums (referred through Ryan Tornio, thank you) for a headlight restoration on his Lexus IS250. These lights had slight oxidation, but worse was an attempted repair carried out sometime in the vehicle's past with less than stellar results. Extra time was required to undo the previous attempt at correction and then restore the clarity and protect the lenses. Foglights were also bad, extreme # of rock impacts. Majority were sanded out for a better finish.
Once completed, all lenses were sealed with Opti-Guard, made by Optimum Car Care. After sealing with this, it basically creates a new clear coat on the surface to permanently protect it. These lenses should never fade or need correction again.
