How to Use the Wipe New Headlight Restoration Kit

Over time, the sun, weather, and harsh contaminants from roadways can wear away the exterior surface of your headlight lenses, causing them to appear cloudy. This not only makes driving hazardous but can also make your vehicle look rundown and outdated. Many states require vehicles to pass an annual inspection, and foggy lenses that reduce illumination and visibility could lead to failure. Don’t risk failing your vehicle inspection or compromising safety. With over a century of expertise in surface protection, Rust-Oleum has developed the Wipe New Headlight Restoration Kit, which can make your lenses clear again in just minutes with long-lasting protection.

The Wipe New Headlight Restoration Kit Includes:

  • Pre-saturated Wipe New Wipe-Its
  • Professional Lens Polishing Pad
  • Pair of Gloves
  • Microfiber Towel
  • Step-by-Step Directions

Easy Steps to Brighter, Safer Driving in Minutes:

1. Start with Clean, Dry Headlight Lenses

For best results, we recommend removing haze, road grime, and imperfections with our specially designed, two-sided oxidation removal and lens polishing pad. To use:

  • Wet the lens with water
  • Rub with the green side of the pad to remove the hazy layer
  • Flip the pad to the gray side to polish
  • Wipe dry with the included microfiber cleaning towel

2. Tear and Wipe-It

Put on the protective gloves and open the Wipe New Wipe-It packet. Pull out the pre-saturated Wipe-It applicator cloth and quickly wipe across the headlight lens ONE TIME to restore clarity and protect the lens. Keep the lenses away from moisture for 24 hours. The Wipe New ceramic-infused polymer liquid is designed to bind the lens, forming a weather and UV-resistant coating that will last for years!


Tips for Best Results:

  • Ensure headlights are completely dry before application.
  • Avoid using the headlights for at least 24 hours after application to allow the coating to fully cure.
  • For best results, apply Wipe New to a cool surface in a garage, carport, or other shaded, well-ventilated area. A hot surface or direct sunlight may cause streaking.

Rust-Oleum’s products are developed to provide maximum results with minimal efforts. By following these simple steps, you can enhance your vehicle’s appearance and safety, ensuring clear headlights and improve driving visibility for years to come.
