What is headlight restoration?

Most cars and a lot of trucks today are manufactured with headlamp assemblies that use quartz-halogen bulbs plugged into the back of a large plastic reflector.  Severely neglected lenses can actually pit and develop a network of fine cracks, called craze, which makes the job of fixing them tougher. A pair of lenses for a luxury car can cost as much as thousands of rupees. Fortunately, there’s a simple and inexpensive solution. Headlight restoration is the simplest method to retain the headlights in good condition.

How it works

Remove oxidized parts of your headlight lens and then work your way back to a smooth surface. Using a hand drill, rated between 1,200 and 1,600 rpm, start with the 500-grit sanding disc to remove yellowing and pitting. Wipe the headlight down and check that the surface is evenly frosted. Using the foam buffing pad and a dime-size spot of rubbing compound will really improve clarity. Apply the polish to the foam pad, then rub it over the headlight lens before turning on the drill. This will help to prevent spattering polishing compound all over the place when you want to be rubbing it into the headlight.
