Cleaning
1. Initial Wash
-
Remove surface dirt, road grime, and bugs using soap/water or an all-purpose cleaner.
-
This prevents debris from getting trapped under sandpaper later.
2. Degreasing
-
Use an alcohol-based cleaner or a degreaser to remove oily residues, wax, and sealants.
-
This step ensures the headlight surface is “bare” and ready for abrasion.
3. Adhesive / Contaminant Removal (if needed)
-
If there’s old adhesive from protective films, tree sap, or tar spots, a safe adhesive remover is used.
-
This prevents uneven sanding and scratches.
4. Oxidation Wipe or Pre-Treatment (optional but common)
-
Some kits include a chemical oxidation remover.
-
It breaks down the outer layer of yellowing and saves time before sanding.
Polishing
1. Selecting the Correct Polish
-
A plastic-safe cutting compound is used—typically formulated for polycarbonate.
-
It needs enough abrasiveness to remove 2000–3000 grit sanding marks without scouring the lens.
2. Choosing the Right Pad
-
Usually a foam polishing pad or a wool pad depending on the level of cut needed.
-
Foam = controlled cut and better finishing.
-
Wool = stronger cut for stubborn haze.
3. Residue Removal
-
Wipe the surface with a microfiber and an alcohol-based cleaner to remove leftover oils.
-
This exposes the true clarity and preps the lens for coating.
4. Final Finishing Pass (if needed)
-
A finer finishing polish can be used to reach maximum clarity and eliminate micro-hazing.
Protection
1. UV Coating Selection
You can apply:
✔
Ceramic UV Coating
(most professional mobile restorers use this today)
-
Long-lasting (1–2 years)
-
Chemical and weather resistant
-
Hard, glossy finish
✔
Wipe-On UV Sealant
-
Included in many kits
-
Quick and convenient
-
Lasts 6–12 months
✔
2K Clear Coat (professional body-shop style)
-
Extremely durable
-
Requires masking & safety precautions
-
Lasts 2–5 years
2. Surface Prep Before Coating
-
Lens must be perfectly clean and dry from polishing.
-
Wipe with alcohol to remove all oils so the coating bonds properly.
3. Controlled Application
-
Applied in smooth, even strokes—no streaks or high spots.
-
Must cover entire lens uniformly; gaps lead to early failure.
4. Cure Time
-
Depends on the product:
-
UV sealant: a few minutes
-
Ceramic coatings: 1–4 hours
-
2K clear coat: 12–24 hours
-
-
5. Final Inspection
-
Make sure coating is smooth, clear, and fully covering the lens.
-
This is what locks in clarity and prevents yellowing.
Results
✔ 1. Dramatically Clearer Headlights
Years of oxidation, yellowing, and haze are removed.
You’ll see:
-
A clear, glass-like lens instead of a dull, foggy one
-
Crisper reflection from the bulb
-
A newer, refreshed look to the front end of the car
This alone can make a vehicle look 5–10 years newer.
✔ 2. Better Night Visibility
One of the biggest improvements is light output:
-
Brighter beams
-
Longer throw distance
-
Wider light spread
-
Reduced glare and scattering
Drivers instantly notice better visibility in dark, rainy, or foggy conditions.
✔ 3. Improved Safety
Clear headlights make the road safer by:
-
Helping you see obstacles earlier
-
Making your vehicle more visible to others
-
Reducing eye strain while driving at night
Restored headlights often bring lighting performance much closer to factory clarity.
✔ 4. Increased Vehicle Value
Buyers care about headlight condition.
Restoration improves:
-
Overall curb appeal
-
Perceived care/maintenance of the vehicle
-
Resale value (especially on older or high-mileage vehicles)
It’s one of the highest-ROI cosmetic services you can do.
✔ 5. Long-Lasting Protection
With a proper UV coating applied at the end, customers can expect:
-
1–3 years of clarity (depending on the product)
-
Much slower re-yellowing
-
Easier cleaning and maintenance
The UV layer is what keeps the results from fading.
✔ 6. Faster, More Affordable Than Replacement
Restoration provides 90–95% clarity compared to brand-new headlights, for a fraction of the price of replacing the assemblies.
