Have some sort of sprayed on tint on my S5 tailights. Anybody know a good way of removing the tint without damaging them?

 

Gas on a rag?

 

600 grit dry, followed buy 1200 grit wetsand. Depending on how thick the spray is, you may just skip right to the 1200 wetsand. Then pick up any headlight repair kit that uses a power drill. There's a product at Advance Auto that works well, though I can't remember the name of it. It comes in a black box about the size of a 20oz drink and contains 5 or 6 polishing foam pads that connect on the end of a power drill, and works with water instead of chemicals. Inexpensive, and by far the best plastic repair product I've used to get plastic lenses looking brand-spanking new. You're going to make a bit of a mess doing it in your lap, between the water and polish throw-off, so work somewhere that won't be a problem. Remember to avoid that black border when using the sand paper, it's just paint.

Edit: Bingo

 

Just what im looking for.

 

Gas on a rag will kill the plastic. Sand it, post above ^^^. Disassemble the tail light first (not sure if this can be done on S5 tails).

 

yes the s5 tails can be pulled apart. you should looking into modernizing them while you have them apart...

do a search for modernizing s5 taillights.
