Pre existing condensation in lights
I found out how to prevent it, but how to I get the condensation thats in there already out? I really dont want to break my lights !
I have a spare center light in my house I took off a week ago and it still has condensation in it :( |
I was curious about this too, because sealing my lights as they are now would trap condensation in, wouldn't it?

Ues your oven.
Seriously, I have done this for both my tail lights and center section. Believe it or not, the whole center section will fit into a standard oven. Set the oven about 170-180 degrees and put the pieces in. check them about every 10 minutes or so.. You will see the moisture evaporate. When all the moisture is gone (usually in about half an hour), remove them carefully as they are quite hot, and move them to a counter or somewhere to cool completely. . |
I second that suggestion. Basically set the oven at the lowest setting and keep checking on them.
|
I hope its true cause the oven is preheating
|
now its cloudy and still some condensation
|
I just put my tail lights on the rack in the dryer for like an hour and then let them sit in the house for a week. That got out most of it out. I put them back on the car and week later they were all cleared out.
|
I got them in the oven now checking every few minutes but the center light definetly is worse (it didnt fit all the way in I had the door part open)
the taillights its closed |
I took them apart still working on resiliconing them
|
I took apart both taillights cleaned them then siliconed them closed, siliconed the gasket to the light then siliconed the lights to the car
We'll see what happens On the other hand now I have a very cloudy spare center light !! |
