I was wondering, how do you guys take off the sealant if it got onto your lens on your headlights? Goo-Gone? Gasoline? Any suggestions appreciated, thanks.

try wetting a paper towel with some lighter fluid for barbeques and just apply swirl it around and wipe off with a wet towel and then a dry one

put the headlamps in the oven on 250 degrees for 5 minutes. when u take em out just pull real hard, the sealant will be gooey.

the whole process is easier if u have a heat gun

i finished mines in like less then 2 hrs i would think u could melt the sealant on the lens with the heat gun and wipe it off
