Unfortunately my Tuscan 2 got left out in the rain last night and the front headlight covers have let in a fair amount of water behind them. In the past I have always applied lots of polish in and around the sealant which doesn't seem to have much good in keeping the water out. I can get the lights dried out from the inside, but is there any product I can apply to stop the seals leaking in the future.

Cant you get them re-sealed ? Sounds like they need refitting with fresh sealant.
Otherwise I guess your looking at waxoil or vasaline !?!?!

Thanks for the advice, I think removing them and resealing them is a lengthy job at the dealers, and I am told it may not work anyway. I have tried general grease, and also vaseline. I wonder if clear nail varnish, or interior sealdamp / stainstop may do the trick.

Had the same problem with my Tuscan 2. The lads at Track V Road removed them and resealed them properly (can't recall what they used though). That was 12 months ago and not had a problem since. They don't even fog up anymore, so it can be done if the person doing it knows what they are doing.
