    Repairing Bosch 4487

    Does anyone can advice me how te repair original Bosch 4487 lenses?
    They have the common small white points (chips) and small scratches.
    Also the letters on the outside.
    How can you make them nice for a concours car.
    Does anyone has advice? Trics? Companies...

    Thanks

    Hi Frank,

    In attached a picture of one of my lenses.
    You can see the small white point (chips) these were from driving and small stones.
    Is there a possibility to restore these?

    there was a thread one or two yrs ago with the same question.

    Some people here told it was possible to polish the glass with some special abrasives.

    OS.
