Default Meguiar's DA MicroFiber Paint..er Lens Correction!

I used Meguiar's Lens renewal kit on my daughter's 03 S-Type back in January, fully aware that I hadn't totally renewed them and that without a UV protective coating the crud would come creeping back. Before and afters are here:

Last weekend, I went over the car with Meguiar's DA Microfibre Paint correction system coupled to the PC.

I'd read professional detailer reviews prior to purchase regarding some success in lens restoral with the system. Thought, hey...I'm doing the whole car anyway...what's a few lenses added to the labor? So I ran over them first with the polishing compound (D30?) then the finishing wax (D31?) (I may have those backwards) and then finished the whole mess up with a generous application of product M21, Sealant. For me, it is ok, though I know it will keep returning until I get enough lenses in extremis to merit the $125 bottle of UV wipe-on.

Awesome save........D300 & D301 with the MF system really does make a difference..Just make sure you keep them waxed or sealed regularly so they wont crack or check....

Nice job!
