I used this product on my 2007 model ford endeavour's head light..which was literally orange in colour. Instantly I got a good result. And after applying it twice and rubbing with micro fibre cloth..I got 80 percent clear headlight..like new. So happy.

Works as advertised but product leaking before usage. Bad packaging

Hand Buffed with Walpole rubbing compound।Applied the headlamp restorer one head lamp at a time.Hand Buffed it with cotton cloth.Hand Buffed it with 800 gsm microfiber cloth.Applied layer of general polish and hand buffed it.Headlight restoration complete.Made in USA

Great product, useful

Got delivered and tried to restore the headlights both manually as well as using polishing machine.. this product is not good enough to restore atleast 1%.May be you can use to polish the headlights which is in good condition to maintain (still not sure)One can buy when they are fine to waste the money.

My car headlights had issues with clear coat since long. Tiny pieces of clear coat used to peel and get caught into MF clothes while cleaning the car. It became too annoying lately so I went ahead and fixed it. Its been few months now and today I had time to post the work details and results.Formula 1 Headlight restorer alone doesn't help, atleast in my case so I have used the following items also to get the job done: Formula 1 Headlight Restorer, Polishing Foam Pad + Backing Plate, Drilling Machine, Sandpapers of different grit (1200, 2000, 2500) and Strong Shampoo.Kindly note that this will not work on headlights that are faded or hazed inside. Also not on glass lenses. So please make sure of it before doing this DIY.Here are steps:1. Wash the headlights with shampoo and mask the surround area with masking tape. You can also remove the headlights if possible, so you can work on it easily.2. For faded headlights, use headlight restorer on the polishing foam pad (5" or smaller) fitted to drill or a rotary polisher or DA polisher. Gently polish the headlight and take a break every few mins to prevent heat. Wipe using dry microfiber cloth and check the progress.3. Incase the headlights are badly faded, you have to first wet stand using 2500 grit and then continue with headlight restorer as mentioned above.4. Incase the clear coat is peeling from the headlights (Like mine), you'll need to go little more aggressive. Wet sand using 1200 grit, then 2000 and finally 2500. Once all the clearcoat is removed, polish the headlights using headlight restorer as mentioned above.WARNING: USE SHAMPOO MIXED WITH WATER FOR WET SANDING. DO NOT USE PLAIN WATER AS IT WILL CAUSE DEEP SCRATCHES.5. Atlast when the headlights look crystal clear, you'll need to protect them from fading again. There are different ways to protect the glass. You can use wax, sealant or dashboard protectant/dresser but these will not last long so you have to apply them regularly without fail. Another way is to spray clear coat but it aren't gonna be easy task and there is a chance of peeling again in future.Meanwhile, I have come across Rust-Oleum Headlight Restoration Kit which includes headlight polishing pad, clear coat wipe and etc. This one is better for those who don't have polishing pads or polishing machine. However, keep sand papers handy especially for clear coat peeling headlights because this kit alone may not help in some cases.Formula 1 Headlight Restorer is a good product for faded headlights and works efficiently with polishing machine but when done by hand, it takes lot of elbow grease. The product says that it contains sealant but I doubt its durability.Finally here are results of my headlights restoration work.

Product Recommended. Need multiple applications without water.

I used other brands previously they worked well.But this one didnt worked for my yeloowish headlamps
