| Does anyone know a sure way to fix the oxidation in a headlight? I believe it's on the inside I felt the outside and it didn't feel rough at all. |

| Might wanna check of you can take the headlight off and scrub the inside with a toothbrush and toothpaste. There are power tools you could make use of. Also might be cheaper and easier to buy the headlight replacements. EBay is cheaper than Amazon imo. |

Usually even if the surface is smooth, it is on the outside. Do you have some scratch remover at your house? I use "scratch out", one of those products that's supposed to get rid of scratches in paint, put if you buff your headlights with that they'll be crystal clear. I know I made a post about it ages ago, I'll try to find it and link it in this post.
EDIT: HERE is that post. |

| WD-40 is good to use, just don't get it on your paint, also toothpaste is also good. Just be sure to use it more than once. |

| Could just bring it to an auto body shop, it's not expensive, especially if you already pull them out. It will be done the best way. |
