354 viewsPut tape around the headlamp to protect the paint. I initially used a battery-powered drill (pictured) but the battery was low on charge so I switched to my 6-amp drill. Locked the trigger on and started polishing. Very easy to do and I overlapped per the instructions, moving roughly a half-inch, back-n-forth across the headlamp then some lesser work on the turn signal area (it wasn't as badly pitted).
