Hi everybody,
Some time ago I read about cleaning/refurbishing headlamp reflectors with Isopropyl Alcohol. I have done much searching and cannot find the post.
Has anyone done this without removing the glass from the reflector?
Your experience and advice would be greatly appreciated.

This Wiki article describes how to remove the lenses for cleaning:

Speedtouch is right.
I followed the wiki for my headlight clean.
