bentley Continental headlight issue

Hi All,
I have a 2010 Bentley Continental GT speed and I used white spirit on one of headlights to remove some marks. I have since discovered that this has ruined the film which covers the glass. I have tried various things to clean it with limited success and it is still cloudy in parts. Doe anyone have any suggestions as to what I could use to clear it?

Thanks
Stuart

Hi Stuart, thats an easy one. The white spirit has mildly "melted" the glass film on your headlights. Simply apply T-Cut vigorously and plentiful. Leave to dry for 5 minutes, then remove - viola.

Has anyone had issues with headlight lens cracking? 2014 FS and the passenger sided headlight is cracking near the edge - no impact. In addition, the door handle chrome strips are are loose and the interior is definitely not wearing well for a 228K car. They look so great when new but I am not impressed after some years/mileage. (Not the first Bentley experience)
