Question Meguiars PlastX for Headlights

Is this safe to use on our Camaro Headlights? Has anyone tried it yet on there 6th gen Camaros and how good did it work?

Are 6th gen Camaros even old enough to see headlight oxidation/yellowing?


FWIW, I find meguiar's products pretty fool proof provided you follow the instructions and I expect this use case would be no different. If you go on their forums I think you can ask Mike Philips directly about their products and usage, he seems to be the detail guru.

No Oxidation or yellowing yet, but just was wondering if it would be a good cleaner for it

I used it with an orbital buffer on my dad's car that had badly yellowed lights and it worked great. Almost looked new when I was done. Don't see why it wouldn't work just as well on our plastic headlight lens.

I'm sure it would be fine. I've also used Mother's equivalent (with the "powerball" attachment) and it did well. You're good to go
