Take it apart would be easiest. and maybe some purple power.. yet idk about if it will eat the reflective stuff off.

purple power would deff eat it up. use a cleaner for glass or something ( like green cleaning products ) and it should just come right off with a gentle use of a hose of course

ive alrdy used power purple in my engine bay and only let it sat for 30 seconds ( actually counted it lol ) and it cleaned my engine bay real well but it touched a small part of my air box and just ruined it making that small area white ( happened on my aurora ) from the supose to be black/gray

so would i be spraying some glass cleaner in the holes, shaking it around a bit to get everything coated, then rinse out with water?
ive also read that you cant get to the reflective stuff really without breaking the seal. s'that true?

i'd take it apart... once taken apart just use some caulk or something to reseal it.

i had the exact same problem with my ho...i tried glass cleaner, just made it worse... what i ended up doing is taking apart the tail light, taking rubbing alcohol and cleaning all the old "chrome" and spraying it with that chrome looking rattle can, came out great couldn't even tell it was different
