Title: Help for old headlights ?
Post by: oil-lamp on September 03, 2014, 07:27:30 PM: I have found some stuff that may help with the old dingy reflectors we all have. Its made to redo the finish on silverware that is true silver plated items. So I pick up a small bottle (not to pricey) to try on a reflecto. Heres a before and after photo a a pic on the stuff. Medallion liquid silver lotion. I think it helps get the shine back without getting it re plated. What do y'all think ? ???
