Thankfully, ing the headlights is a simple task that can be done at home with minimal effort. In this article, we will guide you through the step-by-step process of cleaning the headlights of your Grande Punto, helping restore their clarity and brightness.

1. Gather the necessary supplies: To clean your Grande Punto’s headlights, you will need a few basic supplies. These include a bucket of warm water, a mild dishwashing soap, a microfiber cloth or sponge, sandpaper (2000-grit and 3000-grit), ing compound, and a clean cloth or towel.

2. Prepare the headlights: Start by parking your car in a shaded area to prevent the cleaning agents from drying too quickly. Turn off the headlights and disconnect the car’s battery as a safety precaution.

3. Clean the headlights: Dilute the mild dishwashing soap in the bucket of warm water. Soak the microfiber cloth or sponge in the soapy water and gently scrub the surface of the headlights in a circular motion. Pay close attention to any stubborn dirt or grime buildup. Rinse the headlights with clean water to remove any soap residue.

4. Sanding: If the headlights are still hazy or foggy, the next step is to use sandpaper to remove the top layer of oxidation. Start with the 2000-grit sandpaper, wetting it first with water. Apply light pressure and sand the headlights in a back and forth motion. Rinse the headlights and the sandpaper frequently to prevent scratching. Once the oxidation is removed, switch to the 3000-grit sandpaper and repeat the process.

5. Apply polishing compound: After sanding, dry the headlights with a clean cloth or towel. Apply a small amount of polishing compound to another clean cloth and gently rub it onto the surface of the headlights using circular motions. Continue rubbing until the polishing compound is evenly applied.

6. Polish and buff: Use a clean portion of the cloth to polish the headlights, applying a moderate amount of pressure. This step helps remove any leftover oxidation and restore the clarity of the headlights. Keep buffing until the desired level of clarity is achieved.

7. Final touches: Once you are satisfied with the results, rinse the headlight lenses with clean water to remove any polishing compound residue. Dry the headlights with a clean, lint-free cloth. Reconnect the car battery if you had disconnected it earlier.
