Headlight Restoration Services

The majority of headlight lenses produced today are made of plastic and are very susceptible to road and weather conditions, harsh UV rays, chemicals from the engine and fumes, all take their toll on the plastic causing oxidisation and a breakdown from the outside in. The oxidised plastic can end up cracking, turning cloudy or yellow and generally looking old, worn and less than perfect. Once the oxidisation process sets in they quickly get worse reducing visibility by as much as 95 percent! That is a huge difference in whether you can effectively see or be seen when driving at night. It also makes your vehicle unsafe for driving in the dark and could even lead to an MOT failure.

What Causes Them to Fail an MOT?

The headlight cover must be in good repair. Anything that alters the pattern of light passing through the cover, such as cracks, fading, holes or even scratching could cause an MOT fail. If the beam pattern is blurred and the examiner cannot determine a distinctive cut off point, this is also a reason for failure. We can restore them to pristine condition within a few hours removing the need for replacement and potentially saving you hundreds of pounds in the process. Your headlight lenses are clear and restored ready to light your way once again and pass the next MOT.

We can carry out our professional headlight restoration service at your home or place of work if you live locally. If you live further afield we also offer a mail order service,either remove or get a professional to remove your headlights, box them safely and post them to us and we will refurbish them, seal them and return them to you looking pristine.
