MEDS Restorem (RS102) Headlight Restoration Kit

Before I purchased this product, I looked at a lot of reviews on many of the various products available. This one had the best review, and surprisingly was much less costly than many of the others. It comes with a video which is very nice as seeing is better than reading when it comes to instructions. I have used two different ones in the past to try and restore headlight lenses but with very limited success and a lot of physical effort. This one required very little physical effort, very little time, no extra tools and did an excellent job. The following comments are not intended to be negative, just providing what I consider important information. I have never been a handy man of any king, and my skills and knowledge (and patience) is somewhat highly suspect. I used the product in close to the low end of outside temperature that they say it is required. I believe I should have waited for at least 10 degrees warmer. I applied the product as instructed, but I believe because of my lack of skills and patience on this project, I did not do it as good as I could have. I am very patient in most other things, but handyman work is just something that I do not enjoy doing. Also, the written instructions have a slight difference from the video instructions. It has to do with cleaning the lenses after step one, as the video does not cover that. I followed the video and I believe that was right to do. I am not sure, but I doubt that cleaning the lenses with a damp clothe would have made a difference which is why it is not on the video. The instructions do not tell you to wash and clean the lenses before you start the restoration, but I think that is probably because most people would know that to start with. I even know that so it is not a big deal. Before I started you could not really see the bulb very well behind the lenses, but now it is a clear as I believe it can be with my work. My van is 13 years old and 150,000 miles on it and it has seen a lot of weather as it is not parked in a garage. With the two previous products I used on other vehicles, I would give them a one out of 5 stars. I give this a 10. Bottom line is that for me, it worked great, and for those with handyman skills it should would perfect. And as for when I talk about handy man skills, almost everyone has those. But in my case, as an example, I once changed a light switch out. I through the breaker, put on rubber gloves, used a rubber handled screwdriver, and checked the with a meter to make sure the circuit was off. And even with that, I still managed to shock myself - that is what I am talking about when I san no handyman skills.

it made my headlights look alright but its not really that self leveling, i was hoping for a better quality finish

My car is 13 years old and the headlight lenses are fairly hazy. I have used other products that require heavy rubbing/sanding and I found that they work fairly well. I was sceptical that this product would work because it just seemed a little too easy. I applied the product exactly as directed. It did nothing in the way of making the lenses clearer (and I mean nothing). So I decided to do some light sanding as recommended in the instructions. I spent about 10 minutes rubbing/sanding (the small pad of fine grit sandpaper that is included in the kit is barely enough to get the job done). I then re-applied the magic solution, wiped it off, and applied the final solution (on a warm day as instructed). Guess what? My lenses are just as hazy they were before I paid money for this product.

I don't like this kit... I used it exactly as the instructions said and it doesn't come anywhere near crystal clear! Bought a similar kit from Auto Zone and 10 minutes later, the lenses looked like new.

Took a bit of elbow grease but worked amazingly well. Headlights on two cars look almost as good as new, and there is enough left over to do one more. Happy to recommend this product!

The product was easy to use and did exactly what it was supposed to do. My headlights look almost like new after using this, and they were quite cloudy before the application of this product. I was considering replacing them with new ones but for my 1994 Lexus ES300, new ones would cost $500 a pair. So I used this product and now people compliment me on how great my car looks for its age. So far, I am very satisfied with this product. I hope the protective coating will really protect the lenses for a long time.

It worked but didn't last. I have to do it again. Guess you just have to resign yourself to the fact that it's an ongoing project. But it did look great right after I finished.

Used as directed and they did nothing to improve the headlights. Complete waste of money and my time.Rather go spend $25 and have the local car wash do it for me.
