Laserwash 4000 cleaning eyes using headlight cleaning kit?

[zachavm]

I've had some issues with my some of my eyes on my Laserwash 4000 be intermittent to go out. I bought a headlight cleaning kit to use on our cars and I was wondering if that would work well on the IR eyes and VT eyes. It seems to make sense to me that it should. Hopefully be quick and easy, I just don't want to damage them.

It should, except I don't think you'll need something so aggressive. Headlights either get scratched up or they break down from exposure to sunlight. It's usually a coating that has to be removed by sanding, either the coating turns yellow or gets full of fine cracks. You should be able to clean the eyes by wetting a paper towel with vinegar, wrapping it over the eye and letting it soak for 30 minutes or so. Sanding might distort the lens and make them not work at all.

Wonderful! I'll try that. Thanks!
