Step 1

You won’t need to remove the headlight, howevever mask up the surrounding area ensuring any paint work below the lens is completely covered with plastic sheeting.. Leave enough space around the headlight edges for the liquid glass to fully run across the surface of the light.

Step 2

Degrease and clean the headlight thoroughly, remove as much grime as possible.
