Okey, so here’s how he do it!

① First, apply masking tape around the lamp so it won’t have any scratches when you polish the lamp with sandpaper.

② Use sandpaper 600 first, cut it into your hand size. Rub the lamp with it but added a bit of water. Then continue with sandpaper 800 and sandpaper 1000 at last. Then, you can get the result like in this picture. The right lamp is a bit blurry, but don’t worry, it’s totally normal.

③ Let the lamp dry first, then clean it with autosol metal polish. You can use either sponge or polish towel. It would be better if you have grinder. Note that this autosol has two types, metal and plastic. From the tips he’ve seen, people often use the metal type, so even though he has plastic lamp, he still use the metal type to get the same result.

④ This is the result after being polished with autosol metal polish. It looked a bit clearer and shinier compared to before. Let it dry, then spray it with coating spray Samurai 2K.

⑤ Read the instruction on the can’s cover before open the spray can. For the first layer, randomly spray at a distance of 15cm-30cm. Don’t do it for too long. Then wait for 10 minutes to let it fully dry, then spray the second layer. Second layer spray is very important, its either you spray it horizontally or vertically.

⑥ If you don’t spray it in a uniform direction, it won’t be that shiny. For example, the lamp on the right side is sprayed in one direction only so it is shinier than the one on left side which is not sprayed in the same direction.

⑦ Remember that every time after you finish spraying, wipe the part of the car that has sprayed spot quickly before it dry. If not, you will have a hard time to remove it later.

And that’s it, you’re done! It only took around 1 hour 40 minutes. It is super easy and cheap as well. Besides, you can polish your cleaning skills too!
