Lens cleaning time again?

[mcgon1979]

I really need to clean the Lenses more often. It's been over a year anyway... Possibly a lot longer I think.
I didn't even clean them for the NCT (as you can see in the photo I posted over in the NCT forum).
I cleaned them the other night though (clocks going back and all), and wow, such a difference. I reckon my lights will be much more effective at night now with less light been obstructed by the fog/cloudiness.
Had tried using Simoniz compound which is like a hard wax type, and I'd also tried using Liquid T-Cut, but the best I used was the Formula 1 liquid compound. It's more like a paste than a liquid though. It doesn't run. Anyway, delighted with the old results.

I have found that sanding them down and reapplying lacquer works an absolute treat. Using compounds doesn't last, but it all depends on how often you want to elbow grease it. Applying lacquer is a bit more tricky.

Yeah, I hear ya goz. It doesn't last long. I'd say the laquer might be too messy for me to undertake. I'd more than likely mkae a pigs ear of it. lol
I'll just keep them compounded or waxed more regularly. A good coat of wax might help make it easier to wash/wipe off the dust/fog as it gathers. We'll see.
