    Ordered some Lamin-X for my Hella Quads this morning but prior to it arriving and eventual fitting I'd like to clean up the glass on the headlights. It not too bad TBH - plenty light pitting with only a few very small chips. Rather than polish down the glass I'd like to fill the existing damage and flat them back. Had an idea of using some glass adhesive and then flatting that back? Thoughts?

    I have some polishing mops and some compound that should do the trick but what to fill the chips with?

    Okay had a look at the rouge stuff... Whats the deal with the formed/pressed bars as they seem a little less expensive than the powder?
