Decrease the $H^{+}$ $H^+$ concentration 100 times.

Explanation:

pH of 6 means that the $H^{+}$ $H^+$ concentration is $10^{- 6}$ $10^-6$ M.
pH of 8 means that the $H^{+}$ $H^+$ concentration is $10^{- 8}$ $10^-8$ M.
The current concentration is $10^{- 6}$ $10^-6$ M which needs to be divided by 100 in order to get $10^{- 8}$ $10^-8$ M.
