Tail Light Restoration using Clear Coat. This video will show you how to clean and restore your taillights so they will never turn yellow or hazy again! You have seen videos on restoring headlights with bug spray, toothpaste, baking soda, and the kits you buy in the store, but all of these methods are temporary and eventually the haze and oxidation will come back.
My method will first make the brake light clear by wet sanding and then put a UV coat on it to seal it in.
Clear coat I used: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00KZ6LYMM/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B00KZ6LYMM&linkCode=as2&tag=chri0e2-20&linkId=Z3U77RN3DHFZ2PXB

Did this to my 2001 ranger!! Except I can’t figure out how to turn on my cargo lights and the brake light won’t work, but it looks really good!
Chrisfix: wakes up In the morning, goes outside, see’s bird poop on the hood of his truck..
The same day: hey guys Chris fix here….😂😂
He always has something new for us to learn… love the videosðŸ‘ÂÂðŸ‘ÂÂðŸ™ÂÂðŸ™ÂÂðŸ‘ÂÂðŸ‘ÂÂ
Could you do a video like this but how to tint your twilights with vht nite shades?
The cars are like his child
Just here to say wooder.
You ruined it by using sand paper. You could only use alcohol and gloss spray .
Hi Chis, nice vÃÂÂdeo. My truck is a 1997 Mazda B2300, and I have a issue with cab back light, the brake light is working but the cargo lights don't turn on. I already remplace the bulbs for new ones, but nothing. What I can do?
You sound sad compared to other videos you've made
At 9:26 you can see the finish is not smooth and glassy. ~ Not even close. ~ It is orange peel.
Either spray more in a coat or keep coating, with sanding in between if necessary, to get the gloss finish glassy like the tail light lens. Okay I see at 11:26 he addresses the orange peel. You do not have to get orange peel spray painting.
It may be a good idea to use masking tape and cover up the holes where the bulbs go.
Wow, , lol be good if I watched your video to the end, good job removing the orange peel!!!
Chris, great video. I noticed some orange peel on the surface. Would a final wet sand with 3000 remove the orange peel??
Use Mcguires Headlight Spray
It looks horrible. The gloss clear isn't drift (in german: der Lack ist nicht verlaufen).
You need a sanding block with a foam pad for sanding, because fingertips rub unevenly on a flat surface.
The only restore method is to change the casing
Pundito
2020 is it still shiny ?
everything is a go but instead of clear coating it is better to polish with a wax using polisher it will look more shiny no waiting no worry of spraying badly.
Can you do a video on how to clean a truck bedliner
He talk v. Much
You’re the coolest Chris fix!
