I've successfully sanded, buffed and polished my headlight lenses back to new condition and know that I need to protect them with either a wrap or clear paint. For those that have done a wrap, were you able to wrap the headlight with one piece of wrap or did you need to cut it. I tried a vinyl wrap which had a very light tint to it but was not able to get it on without a wrinkle on the top. I added a bit of heat to the wrap thinking it would help but eventually gave up.
I've heard others have painted the lens with clear and or clear with a bit of tint and may give that a shot if I can't get a wrap to work. Any pointers would be appreciated as I have never painted clear plastic before.
Alternatively if there is a decent coating like a ceramic coat that may provide some UV protection, I'd be happy to hear about it.
Thanks!
