B Jake Moran Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 Contact Marck at East Coast Reatta or Jim Finn. Is there a newly offered polish product that works on the haze? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAVES89 Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 I know that kdirk has at least one new one. You could try a PM to him. He has not been on the forum in some time... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minor4326 Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 If the problem is haze the surface needs sanding. Start with wet/dry 800. You'll want to end up using 1500. You can always go finer if necessary. When I need one or two sheets I walk into a body shop and ask to buy two. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I have a new one and it is flawless. Low mileage garage queens lenses are also usually perfect as well, it's the sun that does it when they sit out much or sit in a garage where the sun comes in the doors on them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronnie Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 Most can be brought back to life on the outside with some time and elbow grease. It's when they get dirty on the inside that is a real problem. Mine was dirty inside so I just tinted it on the outside to hide it. Mine's just a driver and I didn't want to take the taillight apart and take a chance on breaking it. I got it a little too dark but it still looks good. It's just not stock. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B Jake Moran Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 Looks great Ronnie. I had one used one that was very nice. It went with #105 when that sold. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
