I then proceeded using a compound and rubbing out the light scratches, and I used a polish afterwards (on just a foam applicator) and 'buffed' out the rest of the scratches. There are still some scratches left that need to be removed (but are very difficult to see unless light is shining on the light at the right angle) once I get the buffer out later this winter once my tails are mounted on my car. I am VERY happy with how they turned out, and all it took was doing some research, being patient and making sure the prep work was all done correctly!






I would be happy to help anyone who wants to do this to their tail lights, because I would HATE for someone to try this for their first time on their stock tails and mess something up that can't be fixed.
