[s-cars] RE: Headlight Cleaning (more)

[Mark Strangways]

DO NOT USE ANY EVEN MILDLY ABRASIVE CLEANER.
Be VERY gentle wiping the reflectors... There is a reason I use caps...
The coating is highly polished, but very soft and very thin.
Go slow, and carefully. I rubbed a bit too much off with a microfibre
optical glasses cleaning cloth.

Good luck, it is worth it to clean them though.
