HELP!...fogged turn signals, how do i dry, then seal them? Options

[axelrduvirage]

i am going back to my original OEM turn signals. i find they compliment the ST202 tails with the amber bulb diffuser in the clear casing. i sanded them with 3M Scotch Brite (red) and polished with NOVUS #2 polishing compound. i may still have to do it a second time to get the results i need, but i ran into a problem. after i installed them on the Celi they fogged over inside. can i "bake" the moisture out without melting them at let's say-- 150°F? what should i use to seal them after?

you could, but remember that without a place for the water to go then it'll take a long time, a long time that the plastic may not have.

I'd remove the lense so that you could see in there, clean it up, and have a 100% fresh new (and done right) seal. Soldering iron should knock it right out

Novus rocks. I have the same old bottle of it that I bought a million years ago... I can't find it here. I LOVE that stuff. Used it when I sold antiques in NYC - absolutely amazing product. Works great on tarnished metals, too.

If the water got in, by theory, won't it evaporate eventually too?

the key word there is Eventually. that is one long ass time span... Speaking of witch i got a high beam that needs some TLC...

D-Man, I know this is off topic, but this has been bothering me for some time now. It's W-H-I-C-H, not witch. The witch you speak of is an edible North Atlantic flatfish that is of some commercial value. (and yes, the magical lady, too)
