Onnthe weekend I bought a headlight restoration kit which comprised of wet and dry paper, polish, pads and a headlight sealant.

I was impressed with the results and now want to do some other cars.

Trouble is I've used most of the wet and dry and the sealant. Getting wet and dry isn't a problem but I don't know where to get rub on headlight sealer. Google hasn't helped.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

By sealant do you mean like a clear coat? Regular clear coat should work. See: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UEJbKLZ7RmM

No I don't think so. This was a liquid that I rubbed on with a sponge. Same principle I guess but I'd rather have a liquid than a spray.

For proper long term UV protection you are better off with a quartz coating not an old school co-polymer sealant.

Something like Gtechniq C1 or Carpro Cquartz.
