Headlight restoration — assessment required

Clearer headlights, with the right surface treatment

Cloudy, oxidised or yellowed lenses can be assessed and treated with surface preparation, oxidation removal and a protective finish. The scope and price are confirmed before any work begins.

This page is an unpublished draft. Headlight restoration is confirmed as available only once the fulfilment provider, coverage, scope and unit economics are verified. It is not a required launch page. No booking or charge is made before assessment.

The assessment and process

  1. 01

    Assess lens condition

    Inspect the lens for oxidation, haze and any damage.

  2. 02

    Surface preparation

    Prepare the lens and mask surrounding panels.

  3. 03

    Oxidation removal & polishing

    Sanding where required, then machine polishing for clarity.

  4. 04

    Protective finish

    Apply a confirmed UV-protective finish.

Pricing approach

We distinguish a pair from a per-headlight price and disclose any minimum call-out. We show approved consumer totals with unit and mandatory charges — we do not assume live starting figures are commercially validated, and we do not invent fixed durations or warranty terms.

Preparation and aftercare

We explain any curing time for the protective finish and how to care for the restored lenses. If this treatment requires a workshop rather than mobile delivery, we confirm that with you — we do not promise mobile delivery where it isn’t suitable.
