The cerakote ceramic headlight coating gives the top-tier coating a run for their money by offering flagship specs at a much more affordable price. This stuff dries FAST. It has super easy step by step instructions and clearly labeled packages so you won’t mix up the products for each step. The coating is like an enamel that hardens to keep the condensation from building up again over time. The clear coat step makes them crystal clear again with no streaks. It works well and removes some bad stains from the failing UV coat originally on the lenses. It’ll also protect your paint from the sanding disks so you don’t have to be quite so careful.
This product is simple to use, no tools or buffers required. The first wipe is an easy no mess application and the two sanding steps are much easier than the others.

The meguiars ceramic headlight coating is capable of outshining several other coating featured in this list in overall features for the price point. This spray will create huge clouds of vapors as you spray so make sure there's nothing nearby you don't want hard transparent specks stuck to. It fills in all the cloudiness and provides a brilliant look to the headlight, with a very clear appearance. It is easy to apply, works on old repaired headlights as well as new ones. The spray is great but needs much more and better sanding ability.
The smell is very powerful and unique, it's not like an aerosol smell, there are obviously very serious solvents in the aerosol. It adheres to the paint instantly, leaving a film where it adheres. This works great to preserve oxidized plastic that's been already buffed and treated to remove the fogged and hazed top layer. It can be used in conjunction with an aluminum polisher to clean and polish uv faded headlights as well as new ones.
Why We Like This:
Wet sanded, compounded and polished until the lights were perfectly clear
Best thing to prevent lenses from yellowing from the sun
