Product Description

The 3M Ultra Headlight Restoration Kit 39195 is a complete system of professional-grade abrasives, polishes and protectants that removes the cloudy, yellowed haze, scratches, dirt and oxidation that build up on plastic automotive lenses. Restoring your existing lenses can save you hundreds of dollars versus buying and installing new headlight assemblies.

How It Works

This heavy-duty kit uses a progressive system of 3M abrasive discs paired with a common household drill and a spray bottle of water. You sand away the yellowing and surface damage, refine the lens with fine 3M Trizact abrasive, polish for clarity, then seal the surface with a synthetic wax protectant. Each kit restores two headlight lenses.

About 3M Trizact Abrasives

The abrasive in 3M Trizact discs is so fine that you can sand across plastic lenses without creating new scratches. Trizact abrasives use microreplication, where precise 3-dimensional mineral structures are distributed uniformly across the disc. As the structures wear, fresh sharp mineral is exposed, so the abrasive cuts faster, stays sharper longer and delivers precise finish control. The result removes yellowing, dirt buildup and small scratches without damaging the lens itself.

What Is in the Kit

  • 1 disc pad holder, 3.25 in (8.2 cm)
  • 6 3M Gold Sanding Discs, 500 grit, 3 in (7.6 cm) each
  • 4 3M White Finishing Discs, 800 grit, 3 in (7.6 cm) each
  • 1 3M Trizact Refining Disc, 3000 grit, 3 in (7.6 cm)
  • 3M Quick Headlight Clear coat, automotive masking tape and synthetic wax protectant

For Use On

Plastic lenses including headlights, taillights, fog lights and directional lights. Country of Origin: United States.

Application Instructions

  1. Mask off the painted surfaces around each lens with the included automotive masking tape.
  2. Attach a 3M Gold 500 grit sanding disc to the disc pad holder on your drill. Lightly spray the lens with water and sand the wet lens until the yellowing and haze are removed.
  3. Switch to the 3M White 800 grit finishing disc. Keep the lens wet and sand to refine the surface and remove the coarser 500 grit scratches.
  4. Switch to the 3M Trizact 3000 grit refining disc. Keep the lens wet and sand until the surface has an even, satin finish.
  5. Dry the lens, then apply 3M Quick Headlight Clear coat with a soft cloth to restore clarity and shine.
  6. Apply a light coat of the synthetic wax protectant with a soft cloth to seal the lens.
  7. Remove the masking tape and repeat the process on the second lens.

Question & Answers

User Reviews

Made in the USA
hot melt rubber (synthetic)
Offers the widest range of application flexibility available. Exhibits excellent processing performance whether manually or automatically applied. Has superior tensile strength, adhesion properties and holding force which ensures consistent, reliable seals. Hot melt adhesive will bond faster to a surface which is referred to as quick-grab or quick-stick. It typically has higher tack (will feel stickier to the touch), but is also softer. It has lower heat resistance, shear resistance, and sometimes UV resistance than an acrylic adhesive. NOTE: it is called hot melt because the adhesive is applied hot by the manufacturer and then hardens as it cools (you do not need to apply heat to the tape yourself).
natural rubber
Properties are similar to that of hot melt rubber, but natural rubber often holds where other adhesives won't (recycled fibers, dust, cold, heat and heavy loads). It provides good overall adhesion and moisture resistance.
acrylic
Offer excellent performance, especially for applications in temperatures less than 40°F and greater then 120°F. It provides excellent clarity, has high shear strength, is usually more permanent/durable even when exposed to moisture, and it ages well over extended periods in fluorescent and sunlight. Since it remains clear for the life of the application and does not yellow over time it is ideal for applications such as sealing white cartons. While it has good initial adhesion it does take 24-48 hours to cure and to achieve its maximum bond strength (has gradual adhesion buildup). Another difference between hot melt rubber and acrylic adhesive is if you fold tape over making the two adhesive sides touch the acrylic adhesive will remain attached to the carrier (e.g. paper, film) while a hot melt adhesive will stick to itself and pull off of the carrier. It is the best choice for clarity, UV resistance and aging characteristics.
silicone
Is great for extreme temperature applications since silicone adhesive can work in continuous operating temperatures from -100°F to 500°F. They also exhibit good chemical resistance, retain electrical properties, and remove cleanly with little or no residue.
zinc oxide
Zinc oxide based adhesive formula is a skin-friendly adhesive which is commonly used on sports medicine tapes.
Thickness, AKA caliper or gauge, refers to the distance from one surface of a tape backing, or adhesive, to the other.
1 mil = 1/1000 of an inch
Examples: 1/16 inch = 62.5 mils; 1/32 inch = 31.25 mils
The cut level indicates how many grams of cutting load a glove can withstand from a sharp blade before being penetrated.
Lower gauge gloves are heavier - have thicker construction, fewer stiches knitted per inch and offer less dexterity.
Higher gauge gloves are lighter - have thinner/finer construction, more stitches knitted per inch and offer more dexterity.
Gloves offered typically runs from 7 to 18 (12 and 13 are in the middle of the scale).
