After cleaning the lens, it’s critical that you apply a clear coat to your headlights or the cloudiness will come back as soon as a couple weeks! Similar to after polishing your vehicle’s paint, you should apply a thin coat of carnauba wax. It’s the same principle with plastic or acrylic headlight lenses.

What to put on headlights to protect them?

What you need are these tools: a plastic protectant or UV protection coat. Make sure that every time you finish washing your car, apply these to your headlamps to preserve its beauty and shine. Remember, headlights are your aid to clear vision during night drives so take good care of them as you should with your eyes.
