Cal Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 (edited) I'm aware P15ULT used to do this, and Husky originally... I've had a set done (with clear strip and internals painted) and are letting in moisture now. Is there anyone reputable on here who can split/reseal headlights?

flyboy Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Who did them originally for you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LRF4N Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 I have heard of people heating the existing seal without opening them. If there's a small gap that might be enough to close it and solve the problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cal Posted March 5, 2014 Author Share Posted March 5, 2014 Who did them originally for you? Husky ages ago, but some paint vapour started to appear, I left it for ages and got a local guy to do them... Although they looked great, they leaked terribly... Had another guy have another go, and now they just mist up. Not ideal. I have heard of people heating the existing seal without opening them. If there's a small gap that might be enough to close it and solve the problem No existing factory seal anymore mate. May have to just bite the bullet and get facelifts.

LRF4N Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Sorry not the factory seal just what ever sealant has been used. If it goes soft enough when hot it could close the gap Not guaranteed to work but might be worth a try Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Husky Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 Sorry to hear they didn't last What do you mean by paint vapour? Unfortunately I'm not set up to do anything about them any more but I'm curious to know what went wrong. I take it they didn't leak after I worked on them?

ZEUS Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 Where do you get the clear strips from ? I hate the orange strips Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyboy Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 I have a set of clear strips got them from Husky ages ago and never fitted them. 350 is sold now so pm me for details if your interested in buying them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Husky Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 If any one else is wanting some, I found a set inside my dining room wall yesterday when renovating the room. No idea how they got there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BulletMagnet Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 I noticed when I re-lacquered my bonnet, that vapours will develop. And will continue to do so for days, that's why I guess you're not to polish or wax fresh lacquer for a month so it can have a chance to gas off.
