Where do you get this stuff
The round sandpaper with the felt (or whatever it's called) backing that goes on to the Velcro pad of a headlight restoring kit. There must be refill packs or sandpaper made like that but don't know what it's called?

Thanks I've now saw a few vids on how to make them but really cant be NAUGHTY WORD-NAUGHTY WORD-NAUGHTY WORD-NAUGHTY WORD-NAUGHTY WORD- would rather just buy them.
As I used a headlight restore kit yesterday and was amazed with the results but have another car to do plus in future will no doubt need to do it again and don't want to pay £27 a time for the kit just to get the sandpaper. Yes I can do it by hand using 800, 1500, 2000/3000 but I don't think i'd get the same result as using the drill. |

The 3M headlamp restoration kit is very popular and contains all the different abrasives and polish you need. Less than £20: https://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_f...p+kit&_sacat=0
But ideally, it needs another £40 - £50 for UV stabilising laquer to make it all last. TC |
