About the car wash. I have not tried it. Am afraid the lashes will get tangled up. I am washing the mini by hand. Not hard to do

Can only go through a touchless car wash. Let me know how the glue less install works out.

I would not go through a car wash. I bought a set of these back in February and went through a car wash a few times. I think this caused the glue to be less adhesive and my lashes loosened. I loved my lashes.They lasted about three months.

That's what I used too - works perfect. Just be careful not to scratch the paint around the headlight.

I use a microfiber towel. You can buy microfiber towels at any autoparts store or here on Amazon.com. I usually put a pretty liberal amount on the towel and cover the entire car in the wax (it usually takes two or three towels to cover the whole car), until it has a dull, hazy look. Once the entire car is covered, I take my Craftsman power buffer and buff the wax, which gives it a great shine. I recommend keeping the car either in the shade or in a garage out of the sun.

yes, clean well and add lube to top of gasket. I super glued a few spots underside of gasket to keep it down

Use screws or really strong glue, here's a link that might help http://m.wikihow.com/Install-Underglow-on-a-Car

You can, but it won't stick for long. If you're just after some 'extra shine' after washing the car, just use one of the Quick finish sprays, less effort, and just as effective as wax on an Opti-coated car.

It comes with a sealant wipe. The only downside is that there is only enough for one use (probably two headlights) because it's on a disposable wiping cloth (like a wet nap at a barbecue restaurant) so you can't clean anymore headlights in the future even though you have tons of leftover cleaner solution.

I would use dawn dish soap before I bought this again. Out of a large handful of products like this imo the best was a drizzle of dawn dish soap buffed into the visor. You may have to rebuff it often but it works great and is Way more affordable.

no the headlights are plastic and the sanding away of the grime only works on plastic

Yes, amazingly well..spray on leave 2 minutes or so and wipe off with a clean cloth. cleaned my headlights and a friends jeep that was much worse. It did drop his jaw with a, "no way!" might need to do it a second time if it's really bad but it works.

The best product I've ever used is "Auto Glass Stripper" I think by Permatex. It requires elbow grease! You put this stuff on a wet sponge (SPONGE, not scrubbie!), and scrub the DRY glass in circular motion. Don't wet the glass first. It should be used prior to washing the rest of the car, because it will drip down here and there and can be a little messy. After you use it, water and rain will sheet off your windshield like you won't believe. It strips off silicone (RainX-y type products), bugs, road oil/tar, mud, general DIRT. You do have to keep re-doing it every few weeks, but your windshields will always be clean. The best product I've ever used is "Auto Glass Stripper" I think by Permatex. It requires elbow grease!

That's an excellent question. After some bad experiences with some scratches left by drive-through car washes, I generally avoid them. Plus, I like the time to inspect my vehicle that hand washing provides. That said, my general experience with the bracket leads me to believe that it should be fine. Based on how it's mounted, if you've tightened it correctly, there's little that should directly affect it.

You can put it directly over the existing rim tape. However, it's better to peel the old off, wipe the wheel down, and then reapply. For longevity purposes...

Pretty sure you can. This wash was gentle on my car that I had to use a sponge with it to get all the dirts away but it makes the job easier.I do believe this is the best for some quick and easy wash that you wouldn't want to re-wax the whole car every time.

Yes. I wash mine regularly to keep them clean and ready for the next time I polish and wax my cars.

This is the second time I have cleaned my headlights with the Sylvania Kit and the first time I messed up by ding something similar to what you are talking about. I found the best way the second time I did it was to start at the top of the headlight and work in a very broad sweep to the bottom corner. It seems the work fine and my headlights are still just as clear as they were the day I cleaned and sealed them. The first time I noticed that I tried to touch up a spot and it messed everything up. So, next time around, I used a large enough cloth and enough clear sealer to seal the headlight in one broad sweep from the top corner and worked down to the bottom corner in one large sweep. Worked just fine so far they are great.

Yes, no problem. Adheres very securely. Material is UV protected and will certainly handle car wash.
