You go on and they literally have zero products on their shelves? Why are they in business if they don't sell anything?

I've never tried to use this process before. My 13 yr old Tacoma needs it. Great price to test to see if it will work. Available at my local AAP store

3M does have a version with a finishing sealant wipe, I'm surprised this doesn't have it. I agree I would only buy with a final coating wipe.

I've used this or a similar product before. It didn't appear to come with a UV protectorant. Even though my headlights were crystal clear after using it, it fogged back up after just a few years.

I think unless the product explicitly says it prevents re-fogging of the headlights after use, you still need to add an additional UV protectorant or sealer, which this product doesn't appear to come with.

Thats a worthless step anyway

You need to spray them with a 2k clear afterward or its all moot

I just used one of these kits a month ago and the results were great. Just make sure to take your time and keep your drill moving so as to not create hot spots.

And wear dust mask at the least. You just sanding down polycarbonate with very high grit sand paper and compound, which probably isn't great to inhale.
